Picture the 'amazing new routing architecture' as a giant rock and people
pushing this hugh rock up a monster of a mountain.  I think, what Noel
is willing to 'bet the farm' on is that the giant rock will become such
an immovable burden that it will fall back and roll over the Rock Rollers.

This is the peril of an Amazing New Routing Architecture.  The question
of technical merit is superceded by the sheer weight of implementation.
