Doing that would prevent the rest of the global Internet from having to track 1000+ routing changes per prefix per day as satellite handoffs are performed.As has been said before, and is also readable in that blog entry: the system is supposed to create *one* advertisement change when the plane is crossing from the "Europe" to the "US" ground station (etc.), not 1000+.
The comment still applies. Imagine that this system were implemented globally on all international/intercontinental air routes. It would still be nice to avoid having each of those airplanes cause a globally-visible routing update whenever it crosses some geographical boundary. --Vince
