Actually PI is WORSE if you can't get it routed as it requires NAT or it requires MANUAL configuration of the address selection rules to be used with PA.
It's very easy to get PIv6 routed for free, so, I don't see the issue there.
It may be very easy to get it routed for free *now*.
Will it be possible to get PIv6 routed for free once there's 300K entries in the IPv6 routing table? Or zillions, as everybody and their pet llama start using PI prefixes? (Hey, if you managed to get PI to use instead of using an ULA, and routing it is "free", may as well go for it, right?)
Hopefully by the time it gets to that point we'll have finally come up with a scaleable routing paradigm. Certainly we need to do that anyway. I'm not sure why we chose not to do that with IPv6 in the first place. Owen
