Just to be clear here, my original point was never that we should switch and 
use DHCP PD within the homenet.   It was simply that DHCP PD would work for 
delegating prefixes in the homenet, and that the sub-delegation problem isn't 
actually a problem.   If OSPF in fact solves the name aggregation problem, 
that's great, but I don't think it's quite and cut and dried as you are saying, 
and so I wanted to make sure that the limitations of DHCP PD were not being 
misunderstood.

I suspect that there might be some value in a combination of DHCP PD and OSPF, 
but if OSPF really delivers all the functionality of DHCP PD, then maybe I'm 
wrong.
