could this community convince Mikrotik to develop firmware to support all the internet numbers (and not just the convenient ones) ? do we have anyone from Mikrotik in this mailing list to explain what is stopping them from developing software that supports BGP LC? 

I mean, 32bit ASNs have been around since 2007, do they need 25 years or maybe 100 to code software/firmware that supports all numbers?

Yes.  But what are - or should be - the consequences of this?

Add a note to the long list of "Mikrotik leaves to be improved" and go on?
