What is the scope of the second IPv6 address fdee:de36:ce2c:0:174:d4b5:64b7:33f9
? Netsh confirms that both are global/public. Is there any reason I get 2 global IPv6 addresses?

Update:
Ok, fdee:de36:ce2c:0:174:d4b5:64b7:33f9
is definitely not a global IPv6 address, because it fails to connect to a remote address. But what is it? It's not a site-local either according to MSDN.
Answer
The fdee:...
addresses are part of the Unique Local Unicast allocation (fc00::/7
).
These addresses are called Unique Local IPv6 Unicast Addresses and
are abbreviated in this document as Local IPv6 addresses. They are
not expected to be routable on the global Internet. They are
routable inside of a more limited area such as a site. They may
also be routed between a limited set of sites.
See IANA's Internet Protocol Version 6 Address Space for an overview of existing allocations.
