ARIN says:
NetRange: 2001:04F8:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000 -
2001:04F8:FFFF:FFFF:FFFF:F

[...]
NetType: Direct Allocation
I don't exactly know what this means, but something called "allocation"
that's bigger than what a single organization could possibly need for
its own use doesn't smell like PI to me.
