Is /48 subnet really needed ?

The documentation says only ::1 and ::2 are routed, but this set up was working for me:
Setting the ::1/64 as default gateway on router
Generating static or EUI64 address on clients.
Setting the ::2/64 as default gateway on clients
Why would I need a /48 for -only one- subnet ?

Only <tunnel>::1 and <tunnel>::2 of a tunnel prefix.
In a subnet (/48) everything is routed to <tunnel>::2.
Why would I need a /48 for -only one- subnet ?
Because a /48 contains 65536 /64's and the tunnel prefix cannot be used except for the tunnel endpoints...

Wouldn't it work to have the router nat'ing the hosts inside to the ::2 adress?
Although that somehow defeats the purpose of ipv6

Actually IPv6 does support NAT. It's not really used as of yet, but eventually it will be needed. There is a finite number of IPv6 addresses, so it will be needed.
