Exactly. It is intended to defeat the Internet's historical growth model
of independence from national administrations and monopolies, by imposing
a geographical addressing scheme. Since the Internet actually works with
a topological addressing scheme, the effect is to force the topology
to be congruent with the geography. If you want central control, that's
a desirable result.

The key here is control.

Innovation in the core, or at the edge.

License/politically based or need based allocation.

The rest is implementation.
