Brian, Jeffrey,
The picture and text that you quoted are in this RFC exactly as they are
in RFC 4291. We did get some feedback on that text during the last call,
but we decided that it would be confusing for this particular RFC to say
something else than RFC 4291. RFC 4291 is, after all, the currently
approved addressing architecture document.
If we ever decide to make a change in the addressing architecture, we
should issue an RFC 4291bis, not change the text in the various other
RFCs that quote 4291 for some reason.
