if you have no idea aobut the impact of address
assignment on routing tables, then you really should
spend some time implementing routing policies -before-
you burn cycles telling others about how they should
run their networks. no one is stoping you from implementing
whatever prefix acceptance/forwarding policy you may
chose to implemenet for -YOUR- customers. it is a -local- effect.
just stop trying to tell others how to manage their
routign tables.
