my persistent question to the enterprise operator is this:
how frequently do you plan to switch your isp, or how many times
did you do that in the past?
That's actually irrelevant. Regardless of the real answer,
enterprises are not willing to buy into vendor lock.
if the management needs to be convinced by the cost, i would suggest
ISPs to price PI advertisement like hell ($$$), so that we can make
the worldwide routing table smaller.
it will help ISPs use smaller peering routers in the end.

Hear, hear. We're making binary claims in a grey-scale world of
economics.
Put the costs on the table and let the enterprises and ISPs fight out
PI/PA.

The only problem I have with that is that the market tends to not be
very foresighted - it will happily lead itself into a corner from which
escape is quite difficult.
