This interpretation question does not affect normal DAD operation because
the DAD packets are multicast - the NS is sent to a solicited-node multicast
address and the NA is sent to the all-nodes-on-link multicast address.
The question has to do with NA & NS where the destination address (== the
target address) is tentative.
