Hmm.. *all* carriers?

The IPv4 variants of TCP, UDP, and ICMP.

Even IPv6 and multicast coverage are spotty at best, and anything else better
have an IPv4 encapsulation if you want it to actually go end-to-end.

(Yes, I know BGP gets around - but that's not routed so much as relayed peer-to-peer).
