Maybe this part?

   Router Advertisements contain a list of prefixes used for on-link
   determination and/or autonomous address configuration; flags
   associated with the prefixes specify the intended uses of a
   particular prefix.  Hosts use the advertised on-link prefixes to
   build and maintain a list that is used in deciding when a packet's
   destination is on-link or beyond a router.

So far, so good.

                                               Note that a destination
   can be on-link even though it is not covered by any advertised on-
   link prefix.  In such cases, a router can send a Redirect informing
   the sender that the destination is a neighbor.

So I guess that may be the complaint here?
