No, it isn't.  In the "single source, single destination" address, I have
network elements and network admins that feel compelled to make sure that
this single combination is the one that works.

In the N*M problem, the problem is shifted to the end systems, and it's
to be expected that there is a difference in quality between the possible
combinations.  So I have a "find the best combination out of N*M" problem
here, while in the first case I only have a single combination, and there
is no need to select anything in the end host.

For me, this looks like quite a different thing.
