we're getting two stories here.  some people say ...!decuac!decuac.DEC
serves to assist rerouting on replies.  (this is from rebuttals to my
criticisms of such routes as "ugly, stupid, and wrong".)

others now contend that this and all other routes should be left alone,
arguing that decuac will do the right thing.  if that's the case, why
resort to the redundancy at all?
