Could you finally make up your mind? First, your argument was that
multihoming is expensive anyway, so shelling out another couple thousand
of EUR/USD/whatever doesn't make a difference - just to keep the
clueless bottom-feeders out. Now you say it's totally cheap to multihome.

You're contradicting yourself.

You took the comments out of context. The former describes that _real_ multihoming is expensive, the latter describes that you could obtain "multihoming" very easily. The point is that we definitely shouldn't want to assign PI to the organizations in the latter category.
