But maybe only from a few sources. But if the /32 needs to be divided based on 
region, then maybe /40s could be advertised. But to the point about "few 
sources", the more PITRs there are, the better the load is shared. 

And I envision PITRs will be deployed on on-path boxes anyways. Those boxes 
right now can route to the entire Internet, they are called PE boxes, are they 
not Ron?

No it won't be that way. EIDs are provider independent. If you do what we 
suggest, we make no forward progress.
