With IPv6, it's common to have multiple addresses on an interface.

So on options is to assign yourself an [RFC 4193](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4193) fc00::/7 random prefix that you use for local routing that is stable, while the ISP prefix can be used for global routing.

Then you don't need to renumber your local network regardless of what your ISP does.

What if I want my devices visible on the public internet? Then I'm tied to my ISP's addresses. Or, I have to maintain both addressing schemes

That's why I mentioned multiple addresses. The public addresses (assigned using SLAAC or DHCPv6) are for global reachability, while you use the local prefix for stable addresses within your network.

If you want stable global addresses, you should request an AS number and prefix, and choose a provider that allows you to announce it with BGP.

This is also the case with IPv4.
