This exact thought has occured to me. Fixed charges to peer at fewer
places. You can even come up with reasonable assumptions for fixed
charges. (like that people who peer at one coast but not the other are 
costing you some fraction of one direction of a coast-to-coast DS3, and 
ought to pay you about that much)

Perhaps if/when we end up at additional NAPs we'll implement this policy
ourselves.
