You never reference link-local address by themselves anyway — they are
always referenced with their scope ID for context. So your addresses are
unique after all:

fe80::c63d:c7ff:fe8b:6e1a%br-lan
fe80::c63d:c7ff:fe8b:6e1a%br-guest
fe80::c63d:c7ff:fe8b:6e1a%br-meshlink1
fe80::c63d:c7ff:fe8b:6e1a%br-meshlink2

Forgive me if I am stating the obvious or misunderstanding your point.
