For that plan I personally like the idea of the layer of indirection separating identification from location as I see 
it having lots of benefits like scalability, site multi-homing without BGP-fu, provider independence, etc. albeit at a 
complexity/performance cost.  The advantage I see in LISP(-like) approaches is that it pushes that cost out to the edge 
where all you need to do is give your hamsters vitamins, leaving the core untouched.

In the US alone there are 6M SMEs with payrolls (21M without). Perhaps router vendors should adopt Doritos motto: 
"crunch all you want, we'll make more"...

no doubt, this is marshall's numbers (or a form of them) from ~7+ yrs ago now?

I suppose from the same source (http://www.census.gov/econ/smallbus.html)

anyway, we seem to mostly agree, which again makes me realize I'm not crazy...

The more likely alternative is that we both are.

but I stil have wine and sandwiches, come along with jabley and I?

I'll bring the deep fried hamster.
