Hey wait. I didn't even say tunnel at all ;-) I just said you can unfortunately not claim to be an Internet ISP and not carry the whole bloody BGP routing table by just using LISP (unfortunately).
Aka: Joe touch pointed out that something like LISP (on-demand routing information if thats an appropriate classification in our context here) is part of overall routing architecture (which i wholeheartedly agree), but its alas not a sufficient option to become an Internet ISP, and so i argued its not part of the "Internet Architecture" as it is reelevant to this doc.
