I don't understand what you mean when you say ND isn't needed.
basic ND has this set of functions:
Router Discovery
Prefix Discovery
Parameter Discovery
Address Autoconfiguration
Address resolution
Next-hop determination
Neighbor Unreachability Detection
Duplicate Address Detection
Redirect
are you proposing that DHCPv6 is extended to cover all of them?
if not, then which ones?
All of them.
Think the equivalent of IPv4 "static ARP" and "default route". No on-link
prefix, so no other neighbours apart from your gateway need to be known or
found.
