You say minimal, but then you have to have a mechanism in place to limit the 
amount that you flood. And as I mentioned previously, you know that some 
customer will turn that up to 11 so that they get more pulses and they will end 
up imploding.

Meanwhile 100k registrations is not a scale issue.  As a former BGP engineer, 
we call that ‘Monday’.  If you still don’t like it, we can go down the path 
that Robert suggested and register for 0/0.  We could even go half way down 
that path and aggregate PE’s into their own prefix and register for just that 
prefix.

Correct.  Shall we agree to disagree?
