Agree cost is not the only argument for local break-out.  But it is an
important one and I think it's appropriate to call it out in a requirements
document.

I meant a small number of subscribers.

Besides, as far as I know RFC 2804 is still IETF consensus.  Unless you want
to re-open the Raven discussions, we should not even be considering LI 
requirements 
in our work in IETF, let alone allowing them to drive us to an architecture 
that is 
grossly inefficient.
