How does this affect the hierarchy of the network since all iBGP speakers

It'd all have to be flat...

Recall the BGP rule: 

one iBGP speaker mustn't advertise routes to another iBGP speaker if they
were 
learned from a third iBGP speaker.

I'd be interested in hearing from anyone that *really* operates a network of 
more than a few routers and is using iBGP as an IGP .. if you can find the 
time to send me an email :-)

Good to see someone understood the point. ;-)
