you don't need any mandatory aspect. Just publish which AS's have addresses
that can be pinged from old netblocks, but not from new ones. No more
"net police"-like than all the other project stuff which monitors
reachability. If people want to filter on odd numbered first octet
of IP address, well, more power to them.

(yes I know it was partly tongue in cheek).
