Please find attached all the info you requested.  Hope it helps.

Also, here's the nft script I'm using to trigger the issue locally:

#!/usr/sbin/nft -f

flush ruleset

table inet filter {
        chain input {
                type filter hook input priority 0;
                iif lo accept
                ct state established,related accept
                tcp dport { 22 } ct state new accept
                ip6 nexthdr icmpv6 icmpv6 type { nd-neighbor-solicit,  
nd-router-advert, nd-neighbor-advert } accept
                counter drop
        }
}
