No argument about this, but the catch is that this /10 being blackholed
relies on the cooperation of lots of people, and this won't hold against
pressures to break aggregation. We can't assume than everyone is going
to play ball just because we say it.

Have a look at this:

http://arneill-py.sacramento.ca.us/ipv6mh/j.pdf
(I isolated that one slide part of a much larger presentation)
http://arneill-py.sacramento.ca.us/ipv6mh/IPv6%20Transition.ppt

Vendor "J" says they can't guarantee that throwing more memory and CPU
in the routers is going to be enough. When I design a large network, I
like guarantees and not "perhaps".
