Yes, and that has deeply impacted both a document I'm working on
(draft-ietf-anima-grasp) and a demo implementation thereof
(https://github.com/becarpenter/graspy/blob/master/grasp.py).

The cost of *not* having link-local multicast is considerable,
because it means that every node, however dumb, must replicate
and relay discovery in one way or another.
