Disadvantages of ULA-C:
I can't believe you keep pounding on this dead horse. These are PRIVATE addresses. Period.
Uh, neither of those reasons undermines the solution others have proposed: use PI space.
That's like saying people can use real money instead of monopoly money. I really don't get this. Did you guys bet a lot of money that there would never be ULA-C or something?
Um, no. It's like saying that counterfeit money is bad and we'd rather not create a sponsored system for printing it. Oh, wait, the treasury department (at least in the US, and, I'm betting whoever is the responsible agency in most other governments) feels that way.
If you don't like it, don't use it yourself and filter it, but PLEASE don't whine about it.
That's like saying if you don't like counterfeit currency, don't use it yourself, but, don't complain about the damage it does to your economy. Right. Owen
