I understand the problems but I think there are clear cut cases where
/48's make sense- a large scale anycast DNS provider would seem to be a
good candidate for a /48 and I would hope it would get routed. Then again
that might be the only sensible reason...

Don't give people an excuse to deagg their /32

RIPE may only give out /32's but ARIN gives out /48's so there wouldn't be any deaggregation in that case.

It's a question of cost versus benefit.

Does it make more sense to save a routing table entry- or reduce traffic by localizing DNS through anycasting?

The RIPE NCC assign /48s from 2001:0678::/29 according to ripe-404:

Yeah I missed that. This matches ARIN's policy for critical infrastructure.
