Gert, Apologies I missed this bit in my first response:

Some will be I am sure but there will be many that are the result of considerable effort being put into identifying requirements and establishing a sensible and robust addressing strategy to satisfy them. I think we should be careful that we don't focus too much on constraining the former but end up having an even bigger negative impact on the latter. As you say; it really is all about balance.
