> A host on a multicast-capable link on which "unsolicited multicast Router Advertisements are never sent" will have to use the same transmission behavior as a host on a non-multicast-capable link, so that the host can learn of changes in the link prefixes in a timely fashion.

Not necessarily.

Consider the situation in a which a router responds to multicast RSs
with unicast RAs.  The host may in fact continue to receive unicast
RAs periodically.
