If all active ASes did this we'd have a 400k routing table. So please no PI in IPv6, not even for large enterprises.

Why is an ISP more "worthy" or PI space than a large enterprise. In fact, ISPs are responsible for far, far more table pollution than enterprises. Pot-Kettle-Black?

Besides that, please remember the Internet is a business, not a research tool or a toy for those with enable. Business have business needs. If the Internet cannot satisfy them, then the Internet will not be paid for its services. This ain't 1999 no more, you need your customers.
