Now I think I begin to understand what you mean here...

  - With power-of-2 EID assignment, the whole EIDs of a site would be
reduced to a single entry (EID-prefix) in the mapping database.
  - So, one EID to one (or multiple for multi-homing?) RLOC, one-to-one
correspondence, and so fate-sharing...?

This would mean... if any specific node would move to a different site, it
would be given a new EID from a new power-of-2 blocks.

If all EID prefixes of different sites would be kept different, this means
EIDs are each globally unique.

Have you ever thought of the possibility that EIDs of different sites would
consume the same number space? This would mean the same EID-prefix could be
share by different site. This would correspond to local addressing (of
nodes). Have you thought of extending LISP in this direction?
