Without explaining the "restraints," this kinda boils down to "'cuz we want it," which stopped being good justification many years ago. I doubt you'll find many takers who would want to provide you with a circuit for a few Mbps with a /23 for OOB purposes "'just cuz." I note that we're present in Equinix Ashburn and could do it, and that this is basically a nonstarter for us. ...
