Amusing, but wrong. Stretch is a quantifiable  measure of how _well_ a
routing algorithm performs, and is used in the  compact routing work as
the primary trade-off against routing state. In  particular, the
algorithms presented in the literature define provable  bounds on
achievable state with respect to the state  requirements.





Agreed, and please excuse my emotions against CR: But it is not correct to  
bash on all kinds of hierarchical routing concepts either. Nor is it 
appropriate  to infer from CR that scalable solutions aren't possible at all.
