The sin of IPv6 was trying to do too much. They should have extended address sizes, period. SLAAC and most of the other extensions were a mistake.
Everyone should bomb Android bug reports with complaints about lack of DHCPv6 until they fix it. Then people can de-facto deprecate SLAAC. AFAIK Android is the only major offender here.
Some corporate networks already don't do SLAAC if they don't need Android to work on them.
