it is not about lops at all, nor is it about looping, its all about the trees dude, there is a hidder feature called, treehugger protocol. and this will help prevent looping in the long term, its hidden behind the power chord, unplug the power cable from your switch, and you will see it between the three prongs. no that you can see this, test for excessive looping
How can I check it in switch?
if the step above failed, i would take the cable that is plugged into port 7 of your switch and plug the other end into port 13, it might help, i would also leave in there for a while, and go grab a cup of coffee

only if there are branches

Yes, it's in its infancy. Small prefix limitations will guarantee it never sees the light of day just as NAT precluded many useful innovations from getting deployed. Layer 3 isolation is only isolation by agreement if the hosts have some way to get on the same physical or logical LAN layer 2 segment. Otherwise, layer 3 isolation is as effective as any firewall. Layer 2 isolation, OTOH, is both harder to administer and no more effective than layer 3. If you can bypass layer 3 by connecting to the same LAN segment, chances are you can bypass layer 2 by making that LAN segment one which doesn't go through the enforcement switch between the two devices in question.

Neither of these are true, though in the future we _might_ have deployable technology that allows for automated routing setup (though I very seriously doubt it) in the home.

You don't really imagine that end-users will require more than 2^8 subnets, but that they will want several levels of very simple, nibble-aligned routers within their network?
Not necessarily nibble aligned, but, multiple bits per level, yes.
This is perhaps a good discussion to have. I, for one, see CPE vendors still shipping products without IPv6 support at all, let alone any mechanism for creating an address or routing hierarchy within the home without the end-user configuring it himself. I am not aware of any automatic means to do this, or even any working group trying to produce that feature.
If we are stingy in address allocations, it will stifle such innovations as the vendors tend to develop to the lowest common denominator. If we make the allocations available, innovative ideas will make use of them.
Is it true that there is no existing work on this? If that is the case, why would we not try to steer any such future work in such a way that it can manage to do what the end-user wants without requiring a /48 in their home?
No, it is not true.
I suppose that limiting enough households to too small an allocation
will have that effect. I would rather we steer the internet deployment
towards liberal enough allocations to avoid such disability for the
future.
Have we learned nothing from the way NAT shaped the (lack of)
innovation in the home?
