Michel,

You have made a statement that the use of IPv6 site-local
addresses (as opposed to globally-unique addresses) will
increase the security of a private network.  And, I still
don't understand the basis for that claim.

Could you please answer the following question that I
posted earlier?

Let me turn the question around... You have posited that the
use of site-local address is somehow more "secure" than using
a private global address range that is filtered in the router.
Why? What attacks would work in the latter case that wouldn't
work in the former case?
Thanks,
Margaret
