The main discussion is around which is better, N-in-1 or 1-for-1?
While, many comments indicate the preference with support from only
experiences.

My question is: why not both?

Because making a protocol daemon do N-vrfs-in-1 will very likely involve a lot of internal churn to the code + incur an ongoing maintenance cost. If instance-per-VRF avoids some of those costs, why then still take them on?

I could maybe see zebra and bgpd supporting vrfs (bgpd more than zebra probably), but OSPF just doesn't make sense to me.

Wwe also need at least a plan on how to support UI/config for VRFs. Supporting muliple approaches may make that more complicated.
