Again, the real question here is about whether we need host

If not, then Eliot's figures make perfect sense and the lack of
granularity also suggests that the rate of change would be
relatively low, further endorsing his approach.
However, if we do need host granularity, then I think you need about
3 orders of magnitude more scale, and pure push approaches simply
won't get you there.
What's wrong with the approach where a host that is away from home
gets its packets tunneled from home to its current location and then
negotiates a direct tunnel with its correspondents for more optimal
packet flow?
