No, I never did that... Please find where I said it's ok to flatten 
across administrative boundaries. I showed that it _could_ be done to 
temporarily alleviate an expensive record outside your control. The 
other reason I showed it is to make the point the the spfcompiler SHOULD 
and DOES make the difference between compiling, and flattening, and that 
it does respect the boundaries of administrative control if you don't 
force it to -flatten.
I also said that there are still bugs in it, so it's current output may 
not be 100% correct.
And I did give you the compiled record (without -flatten) as well.

I did say that it should be strongly recommended (I believe I used the 
termed smacked) that your ISP reduce their 11 lookup list of A 
mechanisms down to a list of 10 IP's.
