Hey there, thanks for the response! I may be misinterpreting the RFC
but I thought ff15::1 was a site-local address. As in I break down
ff15::1 as follows -

0xff : identifies the address as multicast
0x15 : 4-bits flags and 4-bits scope where
flags = 0x1 meaning that the T bit is set as this address is not a
permanently assigned address
scope = 0x5 indicating site-local scope

You're right. The nibbles got switched in my head. Sorry for that.
