As I pointed out. AS4364 is fully aggregated (as much as we can.) Any
further aggregation risks loss of connectivity for IgLou. As a network
provider, we need to have robust network connectivity. An upstream that
aggregates my routes more, thus endangering my network connectivity
would *quickly* lose my business.
Is your position, honestly, that a provider the size of IgLou doesn't
*deserve* to have robust network connectivity because we're not big
enough? If so, I'll be sure to avoid purchasing any transit from you.
