Sure. But RFC 6204 also doesn't say "must implement a DHCPv6 route option".
So if you want to ensure that the CE router can configure more-specific
routes, you have to modify RFC 6204 either way.

In one case, you need to modify it to say "must implement a DHCPv6 route
option". In the other, you need to modify it to say "must implement RFC
4191". Note that the RFC already says that "nodes that will be deployed
in SOHO environments SHOULD implement RFC 4191", so RFC 4191 is likely
already implemented.
