Baloney.

Deployment need not be expensive or long.  And updates and enhancements
need not be expensive or long either.  Updates can be enabled on a
per-BGP peer basis and thru careful use of capability bits can be nearly
automatic.

We need to decide what we are going to do, we need to code it, test it
and field it.  I seem to recall that in the good old days we did this in
the space of a year.
