No, nobody ever reads that tag. It says "not to be removed except by the consumer".

Which with at least one severly drunk friend of mine, has meant that if you remove it, you have to eat it :)

Does that mean if we rip them off that we may be prosecuted?

With the exception of auto-configuration, I have yet to see any

narrower limits on what can be configured I'd be facinated to know
about them.

64 bit prefixes are the mattress tags of IPv6 interfaces.
