Spending time in and of itself has no value, you're entirely
correct. Spending time to come up with a solution which does not
engage in problem-shifting routing onto the nodes, fixed geographic
allocations (another nonstarter for reasons which have been
elucidated previously), and other schemes which ignore customer
requirements and correspond to operational and business realities -
does- have value, and that's what's being proposed.
