OK Owen, I'll bite - what are the chances that a zeroconf router will accept
the *wrong* default route?
If you're trying to do the "Use this provider unless it dies, then use the
other link", you can't really do that as zero-conf, you'll need to tell it
which side is A and which is B. And if you're trying to do routing across
both links at once, that's even worse for zeroconf.
