That ship sailed when DCHPv6 was invented even though IPv6 works fine
without it.

This is the IETF; you don't get a vote.
I don't have any use for DHCPv6. I need a way to shut up DHCPv6
clients that may end up visiting my network. Running DHCPv6 in a
network that doesn't support is is especially harmful because there
will be lots of retransmissions, which are multicasts that use up a
lot of airtime on wifi networks.
So sending DHCPv6 requests with MO = 00 by default is not acceptable.
