Let me have a whack at this (somewhat ambiguous) scenario....
10.150.25.25/16 tries to ping 10.150.100.25/24 (assuming we're
traversing a router, right?)

10.150.25.25/16 is trying to ping an address in his same network and the
interface has no reason to believe that 10.150.100.25 is NOT in his own
broadcast domain.... or in his own subnet and therefore has no reason
to attempt to arp elsewhere for the owner of an address he thinks he
owns.

How'd I do?
