Exactly.
If I'm right the behavior described in the example is defined neither in 
6LoWPAN ND section 5.3 nor in RFC 4861 section 6.3.7 even if RFC 4861 does 
not forbid it. IMHO it would be clearer to have all the options listed in 
section 5.3.

BTW the link to "Section 6.3.7" in section 5.3 is broken because it refers 
to 6LoWPAN ND instead of RFC 4861.
