Agreed. The entry for 2002::/16 is better and that approach
would work for 2001::/32, I think: N/A, see [RFC4380].

Both of these prefixes are routed as if they are global
but they are special, so neither True nor False is correct.

There is the same bug for fc00::/7, which is explicitly
of global scope but special: N/A see [RFC4193].
