> doesn't more address space just give us more routes to handle?
No. It only makes more possible prefixes. Migrating to IPv6 while keeping
the current (IPv4) routing and current business relations, there would be
somewhat less routes:
bigger address space -> bigger chunks -> less need to incrementally add
prefixes to the same place -> less prefixes
