Hello!

> Alexey, please add some sanity to this discussion.

It is about anycast addresses, I maybe not competent here.
I have no idea what is purpose of all-routers anycast.

However, my modest opinion is here:

IN NO WAY ANYCAST ADDRESSES MAY BE USED AS NEXTHOP ADDRESSES.
NEXTHOP ADDRESS IS THE ADDRESS WHICH IS EXPECTED TO BE SOURCE OF REDIRECT
MESSAGES ET AL. ANYCAST ADDRESSES ARE INVALID AS SOURCE, HENCE...

Period.

Alexey
