Without explaining the "restraints," this kinda boils down to "'cuz we
want it," which stopped being good justification many years ago.
I doubt you'll find many takers who would want to provide you with a
circuit for a few Mbps with a /23 for OOB purposes "'just cuz."
I note that we're present in Equinix Ashburn and could do it, and that
this is basically a nonstarter for us.
