I hear you loud and clear. But we do the redirect model in LISP in many forms 
as well.

We did that in the ITR as well. A cache missed meant to send a Map-Request and 
to encapsulate the packet to a PETR (proxy decapsulator) where the PETR usually 
had a full cache (how it got populated could be with pull or push mechanisms).

But this results in duplicate packets going to the destination as well as out 
of order packets.

Yes, understand. But even in your constrained “domain”, there may be just too 
much state to push to all nodes. Especially in the 5G use-case. It wasn’t a 
problem in the LISP beta network because the proxy xTRs had relatively coarse 
prefixes that reached lots of EIDs.

Yes indeed.
