I think if we come to agreement on having no distinction between the

I think having M = 0, O = 1 would be useful as an indication that
clients should use the simplified stateless DHCPv6 rather than the
full DHCPv6.
And I would object to any deprecation on the basis that there isn't
enough operational experience to be able to make a good decision.
