Humble apologies for not reading this lowpan doc, but I have listened to its core ideas during the past IETFs prezos and understand the link model being used for it. I still have some general comments that are worth discussing when bringing such work to 6man.

Note that if the multi-link, multi-hop network has all client nodes as off-link to each other, then there is only one type of regular ND (RFC4861) RA that can signal off-link. This is an RA with no PIO (Prefix Information Option).

This is not accurate. This can also be signaled using an RA including a PIO by setting L=0 in the PIO.

So if the RA has no PIO, how are the lowpann client nodes acquiring their IPv6 address global address without SLAAC getting no prefix from? In 6man, we would like to know how are

The A bit can still be set in the PIO to allow for SLAAC.

Thanks
Suresh
