That is not incompatible with the addressing architecture as long as the 
locator is 64 bits and any semantics of the IID == FUNCT:ARG are local.

"Locators are assigned consistent with IPv6 infrastructure allocation."

Which means: 64 bits.

I have no time to study compressed SIDs, but if they trample on the LOC they 
are not IPv6 addresses.
