As I'm pretty sure most everyone else on the list has figured out, Bill,
I think we should summon up this thread by one more email from either side.
I'll hereby start so that you have the final word:-)
There are many possible and well working business models. They may not
be identical if based on the green arrows compared with if based on the
red arrows. Postal service providers know how to make business with each other,
and so do telephone service providers, although they neither use BGP nor
OSPF.
And sometimes business models change: Least Cost Routing (with multiple
distance zones and time zones) is more or less replaced by flat rate billing
(which is so unfair but liked by every customer - and probably also by the
service providers because it simplifies proper billing).
Will say: This business model issue is not a killer argument at all and we
shouldn't bother about while searching for a (clean-slate) solution.
