I was told to use extended or wide, which aren’t implemented.

eg:

(first draft in 2009):
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idr-as4octet-extcomm-generic-subtype

(first draft in 2010):

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-idr-wide-bgp-communities

This disconnect I think has driven the operator frustration evident in this
thread.

Due to this gap, the market forces have caused us to be present here.
