Router Advertisements advertise routers, prefixes, and routes, among other 
things. They can advertise a default router (and hence a default route), or 
they can advertise a non-default router that provides more specific routes, for 
example to an IoT stub network. Unless you prefer that we just bridge 
constrained networks to Wifi or Ethernet infrastructure networks at layer 2?

See https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-lemon-stub-networks-ps-00 (update coming 
soon)

FWIW, the situation for IoT (stub) networks is no different than the situation 
for multi-homing: you have two routers connected to the same link, both 
multicasting RAs to the link. Which one do you want your network infrastructure 
to automatically filter?
