And there is also the first paragraph oin 5 which says
    This section describes a conceptual model of one possible data
    structure organization that hosts (and to some extent routers) will
    maintain in interacting with neighboring nodes.  The described
    organization is provided to facilitate the explanation of how the
    Neighbor Discovery protocol should behave.  This document does not
    mandate that implementations adhere to this model as long as their
    external behavior is consistent with that described in this document.
