Also, claiming that 90% will never have more than 2 or 3 subnets simply displays a complete lack of imagination.

On the contrary, I believe that the increase in the potential address pool size will lead to much flatter, less 
hierarchical networks - while at the same time leading to most nodes being highly multi-homed into various virtual 
topologies, thereby leading to significant increases of addresses per node.

A 'node' being things like molecules, nanites, window blinds, soda cans, etc.
