Here are the modifications that Michael and I did to the previous version (also 
thanking the reviewers)

Thanks to Rama Darbha, we have removed the SHOULD hardcode the LLA to avoid 
changes of LLA when changing the MAC (same comment by Fernando as well).

Thanks to Fernando Gont, we have removed old verbiage about 'authors recommend' 
as it is a balance between pros and cons. Added a reference to RFC 6724 (SAS) 
to use global address (such as loopback address) when generating an ICMP 
message. Added reference to the RFC about BGP & Co. We have also clarified some 
wording in the management plane traffic. We did not change the verbiage about 
out-of-band management as we assumed that it is outside of the scope of this 
document. Added reference to RFC 4987 (SYN flood). Clarification about what is 
meant by a loopback address/interface. The comment about static addresses for 
LLA and draft-ietf-6man-stable-privacy-addresses has been ignored because to 
our knowledge routers never use privacy extension addresses for their 
interfaces. The IXP section has also been updated about the amount of work to 
map all global addresses of IXP.

Thanks also to Wes George: we have removed all "we propose" and "we recommend" 
as this is only a list of pros and cons and not a technique 'blessed' by the 
IETF. We also removed all references to RFC 2119 as it is an informational 
document. And we have also removed ambiguities.

>    In an IPv6 network it is possible to use only link-local addresses on
>    infrastructure links between routers.  This document discusses the
>    advantages and disadvantages of this approach to help the decision
