Since as Dino said in his e-mail "none of the LISP authors felt that LISP was the ultimate long-term solution", LISP may not matter over the long term, and therefore it really does not matter whether LISP will reduce the cost of multi-homing _over the long term_.
Sure it does.Once you have separated the end point from how you get to the end point, you have much greater flexibility in re-architecting the "getting to the end point" part. Regardless of whether LISP is the exact solution used in the long term, the fact that you have moved from something that you yourself have explained in great detail (back in 1996) is not scalable to something that will allow arbitrary scaling will reduce costs in the long term.
