On the other hand a large DFZ routing table would simply dampen its

and closed.

Multihomed end sites usually get away with receiving only default route
or some partial routes from their upstreams. So technically you can
BGP multihome with Cisco 1600 or even smaller easily (dunno where BGP
support is starting to become available).

Technically yes, practically no.  At least not for the purposes people
normally want to multihome.
