I agree, not all home users have a small flat LAN. I'm personally running a VPN between 2 locations (privately) that are 85km seperated. Concequently I have 3 subnets (location A, WAN and location B). Besides that I have a VPN access when I'm on the road into those as well (currently IPv4 but as soon as I have the time v6). So I guess I'm actually using 4 subnets. I'm currently running my WLAN closed and not open to my guests but if I would open it (which I consider when I have some time to set up a captive portal log-in facility). Then I'd have 6 subnets (the 4 already mentioned + guest WLAN at both locations). I know I'm not the average user and probably more a geek but... And like Dean suggests already, I use crypto for completely different purposes, I don't need to subnet for that.
