But when anybody does interleaving later it could just as easily
fill up your small nodes, couldn't it?

Boot time allocations are small compared to what user space
later can allocate.

And do you really want them in the normal fallback lists? The normal zone
reservation heuristics probably won't work unless you put them into
special low zones.
