Strictly speaking it can and does run on subnets that are exactly /64. Does anyone actually hand out smaller delegations today?
My point is that they might only be getting 1 /64 from their ISP; or getting a /62 or something small, and needing more subnets anyway. In these situations, you may not have an extra /64 to dedicate to SLAAC for certain devices.
