5952 has much more very useful detail for those of us who write software
to parse, compare, ... textual representations of ipv6 addresses, see
section 4 of 5952.  so i suggest the replacement of 2.2 with a reference
to 5952.

it is very cheering to see section 2.4.0, "96 more bits no magic"
[credit gaurab].

but i am having a hard time reconciling 2.4.4's insistence on a
mandatory 64-bit uuid in all unicast global addresses with 2.4.0, rfc
6141, widespread operational practice, ...  clue bat please.
