Meaning there is no reason whatsoever to not advertize big blocks and
remove the explicit ones. Since SURFnet withdrew all explicit routes
possible and started announcing as big blocks as possible (i.e including
black holes) we did not get any complaint. So: DO IT NOW!

I back this up with EUnet's favourite slogan, "it works for EUnet, just do it!"

EUnet has been announcing several /16 or other aggregates for sometime now
and there hasn't been a single complaint, and yet we are talking about several
hundreds of networks and practically the commercial internet in a few
European countries.
