The 1% where it was a necessary evil... dialup networking where the only routing protocol supported was RIP (v2) [netblazers] -- static IP clients had to be able to land anywhere -- but RIP only lived on the local segment, OSPF took over network-wide. (Later MaxTNT's were setup with OSPF

I remember RIP across chassis for the TotalControl bonded dialup stuff, and as you mention, static IPs, but I haven't seen it in serious use for a long time.
