Sure, source routing is bad on the Internet, but how many IP networks exist outside of the Internet?
Isn't the point of IPv6 to prevent a need for private IP networks? Sure, some organizations might want private networks for security, but I find it hard to believe that there are any that are so big they can't use IPv4...
