Well, from the subject of the message, I think it's "multisite  
multihoming".

It isn't clear to me that "effective stewardship" is a primary  
concern of either of the mailing lists the question was posted to.

Irrelevant for the question being asked, however I believe the IETF  
and RIRs have spoken that address use efficiency isn't relevant with

What is relevant, at least to the question asked, is under existing
