Yes.  I have watched the global table fairly closely for the last years,
and indeed, the number of PI routes in the global IPv6 table is well
under control so far (and the rate it's growing is also under control).

Slides up to May are in my RIPE62 IPv6 routing table report, but if it
helps, I can go through the numbers and provide up-to-date graphs.

Sander's announcement also had the most recent numbers of PA-vs-PI routes
in it.

Right. If the situation remain reasonable, then the educatedly guessed limit will never hit, and everybody will be happy.

However, I think we should be prepared for the worst scenario as well.
