The abstract reads:

   This document describes the use of the Stateless IP/ICMP Translation
   (SIIT) algorithm in an IPv6 Internet Data Centre (IDC).  In this
   deployment model, traffic from legacy IPv4-only clients on the
   Internet is translated to IPv6 when reaches the IDC operator's
   network infrastructure.  From that point on, it is treated just as if
   it was traffic from any other IPv6-capable end user.  This
   facilitates a single-stack IPv6-only network infrastructure, as well
   as efficient utilisation of public IPv4 addresses.

   The primary audience is IDC operators who are deploying IPv6, running
   out of available IPv4 addresses, and/or feel that dual stack causes
   undesirable operational complexity.

I see what you're saying, but can read it as specifying how an RFC 6052 address might be used, when you're specifying the use of siit-eam. May I suggest tweaking the abstract to clarify that?
