I agree with this. I'd rather not add in net-pgm because If we were to start adding texts like this, we will need to be exhaustive and address not just this case but perhaps all other invalid cases (e.g martian addresses).

I was thinking that unless network programming has text that might cause one to think it overrides the defined behavior from rfc4291 for link-local addresses, I am not sure it has to be mentioned.
