That's not supposed to happen, because the other node would
be prevented from autoconfiguring the corresponding link-local
address.

Perhaps you are suggesting that bad things can happen if
nodes do not do DAD, or exhibit some other protocol violation.
In that case I would agree with you, but I don't think that
is a suitable basis for making such decisions.

I am in the group that believes DIID is a (far!) better
solution.   It is certainly more scalable, and it retrieves
for our future benefit the ability to use many routing prefixes
on the same link.
