 The foundation of that, though, was ignorance of address space
 exhaustion.

 no.  ipv4 was the second time, not the first

Hi Randy,

The first time they had 256 addresses (8 bits) right? That's where the
original /8 assignments in IPv4 came from, the folks listed back in
RFC 758 who had an IP address before IPv4. IPv4 jumped from 8 bits to
32 bits. Which when you think about it is the same ratio as jumping
from 32 bits to 128 bits.

Regards,
Bill Herrin

If we're on an exponential growth curve, it's the same ratio. Are we?

 Your post advocates a

 approach to fighting spam^H^H^H^H route deaggregation. Your idea will
 not work. Here is why it won't work. 
 ...

There's actually no new technology involved, and you're overlooking the fact 
that there already _is_ market operating when it comes to routing table slots - 
try asking your ISP if they'll accept and propagate more specifics and your
answer is going based on imputed worth to them as a customer...  you just 
have no visibility into their assessment of your value, nor any way to make
the judgement yourself and pay accordingly.

It's a waste, even if we're planning for the future, no one house
needs a /64 sitting on their lan.. or at least none I can sensibly

Are you accounting for connections to your refrigerator, water heater,
