Isn't BSD's single routing table (common for all interfaces) conflicting
with the conceptual model of ND with more or less independent interfaces
with no routing table for a host implementation but more simple things
such as neighbor cache, destination cache, default router list etc. for
each interface?

Should a host allow internal forwarding of packets between interfaces? A
strict routing model maybe doesn't have this problem?
