If they are so inclined, they might even re-number dynamically if they

advertise v4 prefixes in v6 sessions, keep them separate.
If you do, you have to do set next-hops with route maps and things,

I agree that in some enviornments DHCPv4/DHCPv6/RA filtering
some bus architectures know about how multicast
works, and it consumes *less* resources than doing the same thing with
many unicast streams. If the bus does not know about multicast, then
the bus would treat it as 24 unicast streams, surely.
