This is a constructive and helpful posting, Tony. Thank you.
Am I correct in presuming that both Noel and you believe that the
possible technical solutions to this problem are currently being
considered in the RRG / RAM discussions?

Let me see if I understand this. Without PI, the enterprises say no,

I believe that a more constructive assessment is that enterprises are
unwilling to pay non-trivial costs to renumber, and ISPs are unwilling
to pay non-trivial costs to support a non-scalable routing subsystem.
This perspective is soluble, but it's not the perspective that we seem
to approach the problem from. We also don't have the solution in hand
today, but work towards it would be greatly accelerated by backing away
from our long-standing positions, terminologies and arguments and truly
focusing on the problem at hand.
