None of what you or Nick has said sound like technical flaws to me—they sound like "I would prefer to do it this other way."

So unless there is some strong technical reason why it _shouldn't_ be done the way the working group has proposed, there's no basis for making a change.   It's issues like that that we are looking for in a v6ops review.

We can agree to disagree, but I feel that informing a host about the availability of IPv4 configuration services through an IPv6 configuration service is, in fact, a technically flawed concept.
