All I hear is how this company or that enterprise "should qualify" for

anyone "should qualify", but ONLY if there is some form of aggregation 
possible. PI in IPv6 without aggregation would be a bigger mistake than 
all other IPv6 mistakes so far.

I find it interesting that no operators are screaming that there will be
too many routes, but that all the IPv6 researchers are bringing forth
this view.

8 years too late guys.  We've figured out table management.
