Yeah, this was really the point I was trying to make. For the overall _system_ it is a trade off. For any given actor, however, it is a shift of costs. Also, as I already noted, modelling this in a delegation-centric zone uses the wrong model. Moreover, the data sets are from a notably tiny shared-iterative-resolver community. It seems to me that understanding the endpoint:iterative ratios in (for instance) Comcast's, Time-Warner's, AT&T's, Verizon's, and T-Mobile's networks (even just in the US) would go a long way to indicating whether the inferences about load in this paper are realistic. I think the paper is an interesting result and a useful contribution to the discussion. I think its conclusions, however, are a little sweeping given the evidence.
