ambiguity is certainly one class of problems that site locals cause.

now whether you define scoped addresses as "names for locations in the
network whose meanings are relative to a particular subset of the
network, and which may have other meanings in other subsets of the
network", or "addresses are only reachable from a particular portion of
the network" is, I suppose, fairly arbitrary. I've been using the former
definition.
