Brian,

I can see odd cases where using global addresses the traffic would
indeed leave the site, whereas using site-local address it might not.
So shouldn't the definition be related to the addresses used?

Or is there a concern related to a global destination (routed on
a path that goes outside) and a site-local source, which would cause the
packet to be dropped at the border?
