Yes, I know in practice they do leak, that's why I wrote "should". My statement was a little bit imprecise - I apologize. No leakage wasn't actually my point rather than internal use only. So no matter which kind of addresses you employ for "internal use" only, they may accidentally leak due to misconfiguration, failures etc. The advantage of ULAs is though: if they leak, they are still unique with a high probability, hopefully causing less harm than rfc1918 addresses.
