Never said it wasn't a fact a life, just that it's a painful one... And a disruptive one. Imagine the heartburn if a group with simply one ClassB was required to totally renumber to another...
I never meant to imply that it wasn't disliked and painful. One also might suggest that address portability is very much dependent on the prefix size and it's ability to aggregated (or not) elsewhere in the global topology. Having said that, a /16 is generally considered portable. - paul
