That would be quite bad practise as the link-local address is
"volatile". Dynamic routing protocols using LL next-hops aren't a
problem as the next-hops are dynamically "computed", but you don't want
to change your static routes because you e.g. changed interace (thus MAC
address on Ethernet) on the device the next-hop resides on.

Best regards,
