As the IPv4 space get smaller and smaller, does anyone think we'll see a time when /25's will be accepted for global

tighter, routers continue to have more and more ram will it always be /24 the smallest size?

As the fragmentation will progress and we will be closing to the magic
limit of 500.000, people will filter out /24 and then /23 and so on.
Back to static (default) routing!
