nothing longer than /18 or /19 (it's /18 now, but it's
not entirely inflexible, and dialogues continue) will
have global scope.

As an aside, is anyone else besides Sprint behind this /18
model?

Why /18?  Is there reasoning or research behind this choice?

In Danvers I believe the metric "implemented hosts per routing
table entry" was mentioned.
