DUID+IAID uniquely identifies the interface; DUID uniquely identifies the host.

This is the precise problem DUID is intended to address.   Since every interface has a different identifier, but the DUID is always part of that identifier, we can tell that two requests from two separate interfaces are from the same client, and update the DNS accordingly.

So come to the working group meetings and participate, instead of taking potshots from the 50 yard line.
