Correct.

Well, they would be defective if they didn't. Also, you don't even need to 
announce the prefix at all, even with L-bit cleared. You can make RAs with 
M and O bit set that won't contain any prefix at all. Been there, done 
that. At least linux worked perfectly.

That's one way of doing it, or you give it an IA_NA as well if you want a 
WAN address.
