Neither of these are true, though in the future we _might_ have
deployable technology that allows for automated routing setup (though I
very seriously doubt it) in the home. Layer 2 isolation is both easier
and more reliable than attempting it at layer 3 which is isolation by
agreement, i.e. it doesn't really exist.

Bridging eliminates the multicast isolation that you get from routing.
This is not a case for bridging, it's a case for making it possible to do real
routing in the home and we now have the space and the technology to
actually do it in a meaningful and sufficiently automatic way as to be
applicable to Joe 6-Mac.
