The concept of an IPv4 NAT router exists today because people in the '90s wanted to connect multiple devices without permission from their ISP. SLAAC lets you extend a network without permission using ND Proxy, whereas DHCPv6 IA_NA can only be extended using NAT.
So I think SLAAC is good because ND Proxy is less evil than NAT.
