They aren't configured differently for me -- SLAAC, both publicly routable.

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.
