This seems weird, I would assume it should be greater than 48, not greater than or equal to 48.

Ed, can you confirm if this is intended or not?

We currently only allow "geofeed:" to be added to IPv6 prefixes *smaller* than /48, the message is consistent (i.e. greater than or equal to /48 is *not* allowed). We are following Legal's recommendation not to allow geofeed to be added for assignments that are reasonably assumed to be related to one individual user. The /48 prefix size is the maximum size suggested in the "BCOP for Operators: IPv6 prefix assignment for end-users": https://www.ripe.net/publications/docs/ripe-690#4-2--prefix-assignment-optio...
