There are "smarter" ways to scan v6 address space than this approach.
My favorite is "First, the attacker may rely on the administrator
conveniently numbering their hosts from [prefix]::1 upward.  This
makes scanning trivial."
Most definitely- but not doing that should be considered best practices.
