The problem is that, at the moment, mentioning that you do have any form of L2 link between sites will lead to those being just one end site. So, for example: You apply for PI for your rack in Country A and your rack in Country B, both multi-homed and 100-1000KM apart from each other. However, you also have a wave between them and put a QDD-400G-ZRP-S into your routers at each site and plug in the cables bringing in your wave; Now, technically, there is an L2 link between those two sites (replace the wave with any form of, e.g., packet-switched L2 transport as well; I acknowledge that the average End User will not spend EUR20k+ on transceivers for their two racks). If you note this in a PI application for two assignments of /48, this will now become one End Site, only qualifying for one /48, unless supported by addressing needs. Indeed, it is impossible for an IPRA to verify that, so you could just "not mention that detail". However, the intention of the change set is also to reduce points where people might feel the need to 'not be exactly accurate in their requests'. ;-) > I like the above goals.
