And NREN-NREN traffic typically does not traverse commercial IXen. (Even though ISTR Sunet and Nordunet having peerings configured on Netnod). Instead, from empire-building reasons or job security or "No research project is complete unless the professor gets a new laptop and a wavelength to CERN (or in USA, pick a DoE site) from the project money", NRENs build their own...
