What we were discussing lately was about WAA-8 and WAA-9.

WPD-6 is minor issue. I very much prefer that a real routing protocol, such as
RIPng, is used between routers to advertise a default route.

In my opinion, Route Advertisements are getting way too overloaded: on the
host side with information that is not related to routing (and addressing)
such the DNS option.

And on the router side by advertising not just a default router for a host
(which may not have a default route to the internet) but the actual default
route itself.
