There is also a reasonable chance that acceptance of /28's could be strict in the beginning. But at some point, I imagine some operators (either due to lack of clue or just laziness) will simply write "everything else up to /28", and then routers on the Internet will start to pick up a lot of the gunk that "up to /24" filters have been keeping at bay. Prefixes longer than /24 (or /48) are especially common at exchange points, either by mistake or design. Mark.
