I guess there are a lots of unused assignments within
provider-dependent address space. In my experience with a couple of
LIRs, none of them was very eager to reclaim address space after the
contractual requirement to provide it disappeared, and only some of
them reclaimed it after I asked them to. All that unused address
space adds up, too.
On the other hand, it's probably more efficient to switch to an
addressing architecture which will not require proper resource
management for the forseeable future.
