You're both right, in a way. IPv6 addressing can come from either RAs
(SLAAC), DHCPv6, or both; IPv6 DNS servers can also come from either
RAs, DHCPv6, or both. All possible combinations are equally valid.

That said, this choice is not the Fedora user's, it is made by the
network administrator. Which is why it is important that Fedora supports
all the standard methods equally well, so that from the end user's
perspective, it always Just Works, regardless of how the network he is
connecting to is set up.
