Yes, I know now, what confuses you:
routing ideas are same for processor and persistent networks, but what I
ment was:
with your persistent network you need to transfer 1b + address, but with
processor
network you need to transfer (let say) 32b + address, so losses are smaller.

ok. These repeating and explaining all over is hard job :) and OC public has
probably
set its filters to delete everything starting with beyond transmeta :)
