But I haven't checked the code. If you guys think it's worth the time and is something that should be patched I can maybe find some time later for this.

<https://codesearch.debian.net/> query "accept_ra package:ifupdown" suggests several places where accept_ra may be set and

* Default to accept_ra=2 for inet6/auto (Closes: #739993, LP: #1260241)

from changelog. If you believe that "default.accept_ra" setting should be respected then you may discuss it with developers. I am less sure concerning "all" if it has effect at the moment when when the parameter is set. I can not say that I am closely familiar with
<https://docs.kernel.org/networking/ip-sysctl.html#proc-sys-net-ipv6-variables>

It seems dhscpcd can only disable accept_ra.
