> What term should I use for that?

"Aggregatable PI addresses", which is however kind of a contradiction in
terms. Addresses are as much aggregatable as their assignment reflects
the underlying topology, which includes the split of the network among
various providers. By definition, a structure that is independent of
providers can only be a gross approximation of the topology, and as such
can only have crude aggregation characteristics. Geographical addresses
are one such crude approximation of the topology.
Understood...

Having a word for something doesn't magically make it possible,
of course.
