I think it is an oversight rather than intentional.

The NDISC lookup stuff wrt. routing went back and forth
implementation wise.  We used to use a seperate routing
table for NDISC entries, but that caused all kinds of
problems wrt. IPSEC (which the seperate routing table
was ironically meant to fix) so that got undone and now
NDISC routes and normal routes exist in one table.

So I think this oversight is just fallout from all of
those changes.
