    >> you _always_ _have_ to do a mapping from an LEID, to get something
    >> that _does_ have full location semantics (the RLOC)

    > if a hypothetical corporation decided to tear down its enterprise
    > network and rebuild it from scratch, it could number the entire network
    > out of EID space only and never have to deploy a single RLOC internally.

Please note the words "to get something that _does_ have full [i.e.
Internetwork-wide usability] location semantics".
