I propose the following:
OLD:
      A randomized Interface ID has the same characteristics of a
      randomized MAC address, except the length in bits.  A MAC
      address SHOULD be of length 48 decimal.  An Interface ID
      SHOULD be of length 64 decimal for all types of IPv6
      addresses.  In the particular case of IPv6 link-local
      addresses, the length of the Interface ID MAY be 118
      decimal.

NEW:
      A randomized Interface ID has the same characteristics of a
      randomized MAC address, except the length in bits.  A MAC
      address SHOULD be of length 48 decimal.  An Interface ID
      SHOULD be of length specified in other documents.

Do you disagree?

"SHOULD be of a length specified in other documents" wihtout any reference to what the other documents are or how to find them seems like a recipe for implementor error. Can we be somewhat more specific?

Thank you,
