these addresses have the following properties:
 - stable per link
 - randomly generated as opposed to based on a MAC address.
   (making scanning attacks harder, makes tracking across links harder)
 - intended to replace existing EUI-64 identifiers

truth in advertising; given that these addresses are meant to be used 'in 
public', what is
"privacy enhanced" about them?

the use of "privacy" confuses it with RFC4941 addresses, which these addresses 
do not replace.

"Stable per-network Addresses for IPv6 Stateless Address Autoconfiguration 
(SPN-SLAAC)"?

no hat,
