Remember, I'm practicing at challenging "the opposition" to help you clean up your argument, so don't take this the wrong way . . .

Transit IP providers don't require changing the core protocols so they can preserve their business models. I'm hesitant to potentially cripple a security mechanism in order to preserve the business model of transit PSTN providers.

Seriously: You want the protocol to change, you have to have a reason that makes sense in the context of the Internet. Crazy stuff that people are doing in private networks to justify their financial exchange doesn't qualify as a reason to change accepted Internet architecture.
