The last time this was discussed in the Routing Research Group, none
of the proponents were able to adequately describe how to build a
translation/forwarding table in the routers or whatever passes for
routers in this design.

I note that he doesn't actually describe how to implement a large-scale
addressing and routing architecture. It's all handwaving.

And he seems to think that core routers can cope with per-flow state.

The only bits he's at all concrete about are the transport protocol, which
isn't really where the unsolved problems are.
