ULA is LOCAL.
It has nothing to do with PI.
Another way to say it is that there is a default expectation
that ULAs will be filtered and that PI prefixes will be
routed. That's a good enough rationale for having them in
separate parts of the address space - a ULA being routed
or a PI prefix being filtered are both things that should
raise an operational flag, and that will be easier if they're
distinguishable at a glance.
There's no sense in looking for any deeper significance
than that.
