Nothing is stopping your router which does RA to also work in tandem with an internal dns server that can do hostnames for you mapped to slaac addresses.

I'm not sure I follow? AIUI, RA lets you tell hosts about a DNS server, and an internal DNS server could have AAAA records pointing at SLAAC addresses, but how would it know what hostnames go to those addresses?
Oof you are right. It seems openwrt does something smart that only works for dual stacked hosts.
