I clearly see a need for PI space or something that would fill that role. I don't see why we can't assign it in the way we are doing today. It will create a routing scaling issue but let's deal with that for what it is.
I would like to see us assign PI addresses just like all other global addresses and route them globally.
However, I don't think that we can responsibly do that and claim that the route scaling issue is SEP. Is there any reason to believe that we _can_ actually find a scalable way to route to "portable" PI addresses? It seems like we may need some consultation/cooperation between the multi6 group and the IPv6 group, to see if we can come up with a full solution to provide scalable, routable PI addresses.
