I think that horse escaped rather a long time ago, alas. If the RIR's were
willing to think they were able to make routing engineering decisions, I
doubt very much they'd be willing to reverse course because the IAB told them
to.
The irony here is that the adoption of PI was seen as 'necessary' to drive
the adoption of IPv6. As some of us pointed out at the time, it would in fact
likely have the _opposite_ impact, by making the routing overhead of IPv6
even higher for the ISPs.
I think the old Benjamin Franklin quote about experience applies here as to
so many other aspects of IPv6.
