It does not have to be implemented by giving away "half" the
address space. I don't know where "half" came from.
The only requirement that I arrive at is the presence of
a globally distinguished prefix, which does not have to
be particularly short. The address-space consumption for
a partition that is expected to connect itself logically
together, rather than introduce "exception routing" in the
form of longer prefixes, obviously could be quite small.
