Would you believe that it's because I am an idiot?
First, what I wrote is the exact opposite of what I was thinking.
Second, even that was wrong. ;-)
What I should have written was:
2) Put the locators in the border router. This frees the host
of the management burden, but makes it somewhat harder for the
host administrator to implement host specific policies without
the assistance of the administrator of the border router. Host
specific policies can still be implemented, they just need to
be managed by the border router. The number of unique host
policies can be a scalability issue for the border router.
Fair enough?
