The term wasted is being used way to freely on this list.
If by waste you mean:
To use, consume, spend, or expend thoughtlessly or carelessly.
Then I have to disagree.
If you mean they (unannounced addresses) are being underutilized. Then
say so.
Note that even the current ARIN NRPM can be used a basis for assigning
addresses based on need that are not intended to be announced (4.3.5)
it does assume that they will be routed but not where they will be
routed to.
