the various ipv6 rfcs require a /64 for host subnets. you should ever further divide a /64, except in rare circumstances like point to point links.
the rfcs also suggest a minimum of /56 per customer, and /48 for larger sites and provider-independent (PI) allocations.

Plus, if you have both wired and wifi networks, it is good practise to have them on separate networks. So a single /64 might be insufficient even for typical home use. Or if it is sufficient, there is no room for future expansion.
