IF deployed by operators correctly, the global routing table should be 1

However, that is only feasible if each ASN can efficiently aggregate
forever (or 50 years at least).

and if your capacity between 2 asn endpoints is always able to handle
the traffic load offered, right? else you start having to
traffic-engineer... which today means deaggregate (or announce some
more specifics along with the aggregate).

I'm not sure I'd make a bet that I can always have enough capacity
between any two asn endpoints that I wouldn't need to TE.
