I found section 5 to be too nebulous.
I guess this is discussion about possibilities... but which one do your
favour?  I found the DNSSEC comment odd. yes, 63M is a bit zone.
But, .com has 359M names, and it seems like the pieces under hhit.arpa could
be sharded quite easily.

okay.

I had to read through things a bit, including into RFC6890 to understand the
allocation rules for 2001::/23.  I was thinking, if there are 182 authorities
(if I heard that right, i.e. less than 2^8) in the world, maybe they could
all just ask IANA directly, leaving us with 16 more bits for the hash.   But
our process won't allow that.
I'm also a bit unclear about how much space they actually have here, since
ORCHID got a /28 here under 2001:00_00::/23, while 2001:db8::/32 is not
actually inside 2001:00_00::/23, if I'm doing my math right :-)

If you want more bits for the hash, then I would go for:
   *  28 bit IANA prefix
   *  12 bit Registered Assigning Authority (RAA)
   *  16 bit Hierarchical HIT Domain Authority (HDA)
   *  4 bit HIT Suite ID
   *  68 bit ORCHID hash

Either I don't understand, or this text is confusing.
I think the point is that if we don't have SuiteID, as we didn't for ORCHIDv1 (?)
then we'd have to go back to IANA for a new prefix every time we wanted a new
set of algorihms.
