Surely that is why the LISP documents are moving forward as experimental. I
don't think anyone is deluded to think that all of the answers are provided,
and if they are - send them my way in Taipei for a chat. However in my read
of the documents every time I thought "What about ...?" there existed some
words to identify it as an issue for investigation or consideration during
experimental deployment.
Uncertainty is, I think, justifiable here.. To take an absolute stance that
any implementation is free from hazards is known well in the IETF as folly
(aside: yet many repeat the lesson).

?? really? 

I appreciate that you have a strong opinion, although please omit subjective
nouns from your posts. I fail to see how that adds to the technical
discussion.
