LISP is in some sense a step backwards since it assumes that

Sites *can* have multiple EID-prefixes in LISP, and they will occur when small EID-prefix blocks are allocated because a site under-estimated the number of systems it has to number.

Right, but that doesn't necessarily imply that all hosts in the site
(or to be more precise, all interfaces) have multiple simultaneous
addresses. The basic IPv6 model does assume that if a site has
multiple prefixes, some or all interfaces will have multiple
addresses (and multiple AAAA records for the same FQDN).
