Hi,

> The alternative is to expect "networks" with 100s or 1000s of locations to burn 100s or 1000s of ASNs. Which I think is a bit silly. Hence my question about possibly changing the rules.

I see no issue with that, we have an ASN pool of roughly 4294967280 ASNs. There is no shortage. Also BCP6 section 5 [1] would support the philosophy to just get more ASNs when you need to manage multiple islands. 

Kind regards,

Job
