    > Here's a revision to the DFZ definition:

I agree we could use a better DFZ definition, but I find your proposed
definition to be too obscure and technical. I would prefer something in
simpler English, like "the set of Internet routers which contain full routing
tables, i.e. contain entries for all available destinations in the Internet".
One could also add something about how "the DFZ does not contain those
routers with a default route, potentially augmented with a limited subset of
the full routing table", or something.
