i just don't see it. there isn't more to it than that. from the point of
view of everyone on the connected internet, it is a bad idea to let some
new person connect some new router that forwards packets, if that person
is unaware of the s.a.v. issue. if a vendor won't make s.a.v. the
default because they need the new business and they don't want the
training burden of making sure they understand the issues of s.a.v.,
then they are following the 'chemical polluter business model' where the
money is made "here" and the impact is only felt "over there".
