Being required to implement DHCPv6 is far different than being required to _turn it on by default_ -- the draft specifically does not require DHCPv6 to be turned on by default for this very reason. To argue that implementing something that may go haywire in a specific environment should lead to it not being implemented would doom BGP, OSPF, IS-IS, SLAAC... the list is almost endless.
