Common practice with IPv4 seems to suggest that those knobs aren't
sufficient in real life; people still find it necessary to carve up
their aggregates and announce more-specifics in strategic directions.
I would suggest that not *all* observed instances of such
deaggregation are due to operator ignorance :-)
I imagine that the same practice will continue (is continuing?) with
IPv6, to the extent that peoples' bogon filters allow it to have any
practical effect.
