I would agree with pretty well all of that. I'd just add a few points.
Having a 169.254.0.0 route, like the one posted here, shouldn't cause
any ill-effects if other routes exist, as in for example:
$ ip r
default via 192.168.1.1 dev wlp2s4
169.254.0.0/16 dev wlp2s4 scope link metric 1000
192.168.1.0/24 dev wlp2s4 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.10
$
That machine has no 169.254.x.y address configured either:
$ ip a
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 ::1/128 scope host
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: enp2s2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether 00:98:76:54:32:10 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: wlp2s4: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether 00:0e:12:34:56:78 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.1.10/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global dynamic wlp2s4
valid_lft 80846sec preferred_lft 80846sec
inet6 fe80::20e:12ff:fe34:5678/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
$
I don't recall ever seeing a 169.254.0.0 route generated in the
absence of avahi-autoipd.
I use avahi-daemon for driverless printing on systems that have
no 169.254.… addresses, routes, etc. The entire LAN is given its
IP addresses by a DHCP server in my primary router.
Cheers,
David.
