You are missing the point of making a proper plan which can justify
address space for your business for the next years.

If done properly, you have successfully justified it and you will never
ever have to go back to any of the five years.


Now what will cause routing bloat is folks who keep on doing the same
methods of "load balancing" and "chunking out of PA" and announcing that
in BGP.

Oh and then there are of course the various organizations who do not
know/understand what RPSL is and who do not understand what filtering
and aggregation means...
