M=1 equals Managed flag = request ia_na or/and ia_pd.
Please note a router is also acting as host.

What should M=1 mean then?

> what's the purpose of having separate options (ia_na and ia_pd)  if you're going to request both of them anyway ?

The answer to that seems simple to me: an end host would never request IA_PD. Only routers would.
