Not true if you have a VPN link to a business partner and you want
your traffic to that partner to use the ULA, which is routed via
the VPN, rather than a GUA that is routed via the Internet.
Not true if an enterprise uses multiple ULA prefixes internally
for some reason.
These cases will need explicit policy table entries if the default
is de-pref as you suggest.
