[j-nsp] Overlapping ipv6 address space?

Greetings,

I'm curious as to why the following did not throw an overlapping
address error when committed:

[edit]
# show interfaces ge-0/0/0.0
family inet6 {
    address fe80::200:ff:fe12:1/64;
    address 2001:20:1::5/64;
}

[edit]
# show interfaces lo0.0
family inet6 {
    address 2001:20:1::1/128;
}

As you can see from the output below, the overlapping addresses are
live on the interfaces:

# run show interfaces terse | match "ge-0/0/0.0|lo0.0"
ge-0/0/0.0              up    up   inet6    2001:20:1::5/64
lo0.0                   up    up   inet6    2001:20:1::1


Thanks,
     ~Aaron
