Separating reachability is what firewalling is all about... 'No route' is more effective than the fastest deep packet inspection engine. Consider that the default configuration for a printer should not be to bind to a global prefix because that is generally a local function. There are more examples related to home automation of what is to come, more so than what exists to create current demand. Either way, it is trivial for a SOHO device to generate the random prefix and avoid the problem of people all selecting the same thing. If it gets used or not is a completely independent discussion.
