The default and standard method to assign IPv6 address is SLAAC.
DHCPv6 is optional. You need to investigate why SLAAC address was not
assigned.

As I said, I'm not 100% sure that the ISP is behaving correctly,
although Bjørn indicated that what they are doing is fairly common.

That said, I'm not sure I've ever seen an ISP use SLAAC over PPP, so is
this *really* in any way standard?


SLAAC is used by your own system, not ISP. ISP sends RA. Your system
uses SLAAC to build address using these RA. You yourself said they are
present (you mentioned M an O flags).

Do you mean these RAs do not contain any valid prefix?
