MTU was 1498 bytes and average observed IPv6 MTU was 1289, obviously
telling us that 1280 is the dominant value in practice (at least
for hosts running BitTorrent). So it's not only the safe value to use,
but it's also not very sub-optimal.

Disagree.

I've been looking at IPv6 in BitTorrent a bit, and nearly all peers participating in BitTorrent over IPv6 use 6to4. Obviously there will be little overlap between 6to4 users and NAT64 users...

I'll see if I can dig up some info from people visiting my websites over IPv6.
