Yes. And while we're at it, let's use Huffman coding for IP addresses.

Whatever we do, we won't get away from actual line-speed implementations
being constrained by current integrated circuit technology. So every few
years, with a new generation of technology, the constraints change, just
as the Strowger switch revolutionized telephony in 1891.
