Back to your idea of having a full routing table in each host. We've
talked about this and things haven't changed in the mean time. Without
aggregation, this makes sense, as a host then knows what's reachable
and what isn't, and maybe even gets to determine which path to a
certain destination is shorter. But all this very useful information
is hidden behind aggregation. For instance, if you want to determine
whether you want to reach me through my 3ffe:2500:310::/48 or my
2001:888:1dde::/48 prefix, you're not going to be able to see whether
those are reachable, as the /48s aren't going to be in the global
routing table, just 3ffe:2500::/32 and 2001:888::/32.
