I used to run an enterprise network. It was very different from an ISP network. I didn't say, "You're wrong!" I said, "What's missing?"default route information via DHCPv6.

DHCPv6 + RA works for that, but still, that really should have been part of the protocol from day one. I see no good reason for it not to be in there.
I suspect that will eventually be fixed, but it will be a long time before the majority of DHCPv6 client and server implementations are upgraded to support it.
