Yes, if you want to peer widely and publically,  then a 32b ASN leads
to "issues" with IXP route servers not being able to "cope".

In addition it appears that filtering AS-Paths with 23456 in them has
been suggested in various places as being a "good thing tm"

So if I was getting a new AS I'd be requesting one to be 16b in order
to avoid as much of this as possible
