whilst i'm at the mic here, ditch the idea of microassignments, just give out a standard /32 block ... lets not start out with ge 33 prefixes in the table when theres no need

there is this wonderful, apparently US phenomeon, called the "warehouse" store aka Stuffmart. Single guys go in for a quart of milk and some TP and walk out w/ a MINIMUM of four gallons of milk, 144 rolls of TP, and a side of beef. saving the poor routing table is a laudable and worthwhile goal, but dumping the excess into the edges, "just cause its easy" strikes me as lame. a routing table slot is a slot is a slot. It holds a /96 as well as a /32 as well as a /112. If we are going to ditch "microassignments" (and boy is that term an oxymoron) then we should also dump "one-size-fits-all" and really and truely give folks what they need. RIRs have -never- assured the routablity of delegations. --oat willie (as a lone voice)
