A locally administered identifier is perfectly adequate for global 
communications and other ILNP hosts can easily recognize it.  The only 
difference is that the host cannot roam outside of its administrative scope.

Similarly, the identifier 'Toni' is not globally unique, but is perfectly 
adequate for correspondence without the least confusion.  ;-)
