hi acee,
With due respect to your disposition, the Anycast draft is a NSF grant 
project
and it makes a good implementation, as good as OSPFv3 anycast capability.
The authors are definitely, trying out to reach people with other 
perspectives which is
probably different from ours.
Hope you take positive criticism positively.
Period.
Thanks,
Abhay
