Are you using SLAAC, DHCPv6, or a combination of the two? Are both prefixes publicly routable?

I certainly know that it's doable, I'm more curious to know how much the two can differ (ULA, PD, PI, privacy, etc.). I'm looking into using two prefixes because of the privacy options ($WORK is health care, so some data is highly sensitive), but there may be other reasons to use two prefixes.

In the IPv4 world order most machines have one address per NIC, so the whole multiple addresses way of thinking is probably novel to most folks.
