Some of us prefer to not break connectivity for our customers.

The sorry state of aggregation doesn't (currently) affect me one way or the
other.  It would just be nice to see other network operators clean up their

what you create" school of thought.  Maybe if others would, we wouldn't have
such a problem w/ the route table size.
