The full IP routing tables are something that you normally only have to deal
with in a few devices at the perimeter of your network.
What is being talked about here is routing each /32 IP address individually
throughout your network so that any IP address can be connected anywhere and
have it 'just work' as far as the client on that IP is concerned.
