There are not enough significant data points to do any sort of trend 
analysis at this point in time.  I agree with Tony -- as a person who 
personally still gets criticized for the fact that China doesn't have 
as much address space as MIT, we will regret not addressing the 
multi-homing (and related) issues now, before "historical mistakes" 
become permanent.

Further, if we address the multi-homing (and related) issues, there 
will be a clear and obvious justification for IPv6 deployment which has 
not, to date, been made.
