Hi,

First of all, multihomed sites with its own global routing
table entries bloats the global routing table, which is the
major cause of global routing table bloat and is not acceptable.

Sorry, but that is false. Looking at the CIDR report (http://www.cidr-report.org/as2.0/#Gains) the routing table could 
shrink from 449k to 258k just by aggregating announcements. That's a reduction of 42.5%. I can't see how multihomed 
end-site announcements can be worst than that... There would almost be no routing table left ;-)

Anyway... Drifting off-topic for this thread.
