Who cares? You've railed against SMTP+AUTH because it's not a
"standard". Why do you give a rat's rump about 1546?

Perhaps PPLB becomes more common. Time for SACK, lest traditional TCP
do bad things.
As for anycast, there's a fair chance people building anycast clusters
will work around PPLB. Maybe they'll build topologies to avoid
problems. Maybe they'll have behind-the-scenes unicast intelligence to
deal with TCP session transfer.
I'll leave it at that. This thread is getting old, and 1xRTT latency
makes SSH uncomfortable.
DA> What can be expected from dumb people?
Frequent NANOG posting.
