YES!

I've come to believe that one of the fundamental failures of the IETF is that it permits or even encourages protocol design to be directed by corner cases. This results in a rat's nest of often conflicting requirements and unimplementable complexity. There is no perfect solution and there will be tradeoffs any direction you choose. TANSTAAFL. Really.

Start simple and evolve to meet the changing environment. If I have one complaint about LISP, it is that it may already be too complicated.

Listen folks, one solution isn't going to solve all of the world's problems. Want to throw away this effort because of this one issue? You think another solution won't have issues as well?

We design for the optimal case and hopefully with experience and data from operators more networks move to the optimal case. And later if we have to still solve the suboptimal case, we do fragmentation.

Can we agree with this?
