Nope.  There's my original routing, some explicit host routing for the
P-t-P IP address and VPN server, a network route for 192.168.90.0, and
network routes for exactly the public IP space of the VPN server
network.  There's nothing that consumes a larger swath of the public
space.

That'd mean that neither my host nor anything else on my LAN uses the
VPN for the VPN server's network.  What I want is to exclude the rest
of my LAN but leave my host itself unchanged.  Which perhaps just
isn't possible without way too much hoop jumping.
