 The phrase "more than one default route" on its own makes my head hurt,
 given the normal meaning in computer science of the word "default".

 One default route per source prefix in use makes perfect sense, in view
 of the need for address pair selection and ingress-filtering avoidance.
 (When I think about it, a default route even makes sense for a ULA
 prefix.)

 Clearly - the customers for this include MIF, homenet and shim6 to name
 only three.
