On the internet I found the IP address space 169.254.x.x seems to be treated special and maybe Linux is taking care of this "handling"
See here:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3927 (special treatment of 169.254.x.x networks)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reserved_IP_addresses
https://www.xnetsolutions.de/support/sx-...69-254-x-x
https://www.linux.com/learn/intro-to-lin...addressing (169.254.x.x address space is not routable)
Thx
Armin
