My understanding is that these are not routable addresses. That is,
they won't appear in routing protocol exchanges or routing tables.
If that is the case, then we are talking about the allocation of

different than IPv6 addresses.
Well, "not appear in routing table" != "is not an address". Link
local addresses, for instance, do not appear in routing protocols
or tables but we still consider them IPv6 addresses. Anyway,
the point is moot because these folks ARE requesting an allocation
from the IPv6 address space, no matter what we call the values.
Also, it would appear to me that application-layer referrals
would probably cause some of these numbers to leak outside
host processing and onto packets during the experiment.
