Hi Robin,
                 Eliot's suggestion (as I understand it) to exclude
                 larger end-user networks from the (presumably)
                 renumbering based solution for smaller networks
                 would still leave many "smaller" networks way too
                 big for "routine" renumbering.

Again, let's separate the problem from the solution. To put it another way, home and SMB networks really don't even have an option today to be multihomed (at least not at the network layer), and so whatever growth we're seeing today in the routing table is strictly that of larger institutions, and related traffic engineering and (to a lesser extent) disaggregation to protect large prefixes.

If one solution can fit all, all the better. One is better than two, all other things being equal. Whether they are or not is a fair question.

Regards,

Eliot
