It wasn't that many years ago that Apple defined Bonjour/mDNS as "an
experimental protocol for small networks without a DNS server".

  Our network isn't small.  It has DNS servers. With some of our current
equipment, multicast just turns into a broadcast flood.  (Multicast imaging
with Ghost *kills* us.)
   Oh but oops -- we use some Apple hardware and software, so I guess those
don't matter.

Yes, "routing" breaks traditional AT, IPX, NetBEUI, etc.

So what clown woke up and said "Hey!  Let's just multicast it, that's
routable..."
