If you want to buy some equipment that can handle hundreds of thousands of 
ND:s instead of one that might handle thousands, you're free to do so. 
Also your L2 transport need to scale as well, including needing to handle 
tens of MAC addresses per customer (I live in a household of 2 adults, we 
have approximately 10-15 devices that talk IP, and this is not becoming 
fewer over time).

It's your money (or your employers).
