We have a solution for this for stub router which would work generally.

In order for relay to be an option, the router that would act as a relay
must already have done DHCPv6 pd to number the link to which the subsidiary
requesting router is attached. So there is no need for site-wide multicast
here.

Not ready to give up on this yet, but I agree that it is out of scope.

BTW, regarding Jon-tree topologies, from the perspective of a requesting
router, there will always be a direct path to the delegating router. If
there are two paths, the same prefix will be assigned over both paths. I
think this means that a loop can’t happen and you don’t need spanking tree,
but we’d need to think about it. Again out of scope for this document,
though—this document is about address allocation, not routing.
