I haven't seen that proposal, so I can't comment on it.
but if the routing system can acquire the capability to aggregate
dissimilar prefixes, then we don't need to worry nearly as much about
trying to discourage global routing of PI addresses.
True. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that anyone has figured out a good
way to skin this cat from either end...
