It indeed works, and works quite well, in a small setting.
There is no debate about that, but I think everyone agrees
that when we have tens of thousands of networks like that
then we have to do something else. My back-of-the-envelope
calculations indicated that running all of commercial airliners
with this scheme would roughly double global BGP update
traffic.

In any case, I don't think anyone needs to challenge the
requirement as such -- the intention was not to claim
that in small scale this would be a problem.
