It is necessary to keep an acceptable churn and still allocate small
blocks to newcomers, merely to deploy CGNs.

Not doing so would end up in courts for entry barrier enforced by a
monopoly (the RIRs).

Therefore it is inevitable to reclaim unused address space as long as
there's a demand for IPv4, wich will still be strong as long as major
players refuse to do their jobs.

Moreover, I think it's necessary for all responsible LIR and RIRs to
take a stand and vote policies to reclaim address space from networks
who are still not deploying IPv6 as those obviously don't want to be a
part of the Internet anymore.
