My line of reasoning is "we don't have enough experience to judge how things will evolve, but there are some serious doubts on whether we can handle unreasonably large number of BGP routes - so we put a limit in there, and then reconsider in a few years whether our strategy is useful or not". I don't really expect the "5000" number to be a serious issue - but if it turns out to be, policy needs changing, of course. In whatever direction.

As nobody is preventing you from becoming an ISP, this line of argument is completly cr**.
