Cyrus,

It is necessary in certain circumstances. For instance if you're running
OSPFv3 in non-broadcast mode between R1, R2 and R5, when R2 receives
routes advertised from R5, they will have R5's link-local address as the
next-hop - if R2 does not have a mapping for that address, encapsulation
will fail to those destinations.

As a general rule, I always map the link-locals of spokes on other
spokes, just in case. It doesn't cause any harm.
