        I can say that we had to drop uRPF for technical reasons,
namely not enough people ask their vendors about it so it is:

        a) not tested (at all)
        b) not performance rated
        c) lacks simple fixes

        The people who have the purchasing power are not the tier-1
carriers regardless.  We push as hard as we can and end up with the
compromises as a result.
