Actually, "different than" captures the scenario where the PD is a
longer prefix than the hint indicated, in which case the CPE router may
not be able to number all of the interfaces in such a way as to enable
SLAAC.  What to do in this case is unclear, and we leave it up to the
vendor.

It also captures the case where the PD is a shorter prefix than the hint
indicated, which is not really a problem for the CPE router.
