Bert, I think you are either not reading or not understanding what I am writing.
It must be the former, because what I am writing is not complicated.

Another question that we would have to ask is what is the longest prefix that
we should expect an ISP (or a core Internet router, for that matter) to carry
in its routing tables? A /80? A /96?

Thanks - Fred
