You understand "the technical need to limit ASN's to /19's"?  I don't,
perhaps you could explain it to me.  I have a whole bunch of multi-homed
downstreams who have /21s or /20s - with their own ASNs.  Should we just
give them more space?  Or are they "not allowed" to multi-home?  What am I
missing?
