Right -- they should be using routers, not bridges.
 
but there's only 7 seas - 802.1d scales fine to that
size AS

also, we've got enough jitter what with 6 hours mean delay but 6 hours
variance - do you really want to add BGP convergence time problems too?
and what of multihoming - its only a matter of time begfore someone on
some continent wants a canal to two other oceans...
