OK, I can (and do) live with that.

I tend to prefer technical reasons to choose a technology (and in
so doing, hope to avoid "throwing spaghetti at the wall"), but if
you'd rather base your decisions on what you like (or not), you have
every right to do so.

In my opinion there are a bulk of technical merits that place DHCPv6
ahead of RTadv.  I don't like either protocol, but they're what we've
got.
