Thanks! That makes sense. I actually do dual-boot my living room PC but not very often and there are only a few configurations. So I can just statically add their DUID/IAIDs to dhcp-host.
I guess the problem you're referring to is that dhcp-host only supports a single "id:" option instead of a set for DHCPv6. For DHCPv4, it is clear and makes sense: you can use multiple, mutually exclusive MAC addresses and optionally append "id:*" to ignore the client-id.
