> We studied this. I don’t think there’s a risk of a loop. The problem is that routing might be pessimal, and the system is not resilient in the face of unplug/replug events. If we assume that PD and relays set up routes, we’re going to always have routes that lead to the top of the tree. If a router has multiple links, it will only ever route packets northward, or to links to which it is directly connected. This is not ideal, and doesn’t work for every topology, but I don’t think it forms loops. You can’t use RAs to advertise routes to non-adjacent links.

What use of DHCP PD are you referring to here?
DHCP PD is only defined to work across administrative boundaries.
"Hierarchical DHCP PD"?
