SLs are a virus that must be eradicated at any cost.
the best available method is quarantine.

routers need to start filtering SLs by default.
apps need to refuse to use them.
DNS servers need to refuse to advertise them.
gethostinfo needs to put them last.
host stacks need to ignore RAs that include SL prefixes,
and to use SLs only as a last resort.
