Yes, because otherwise the rest of us can't use SEND/CGA.   The fact that in the next paragraph after this you claim that the internet architecture has already, de facto, been broken in this way backs up my claim.   Of course it hasn't, except in your own subnet, but if your intended use of the address space were to become prevalent, it really would break a lot of valuable functionality in IPv6.   You obviously don't think the functionality is valuable, but that doesn't qualify you to decide for the rest of us.
