maybe these weren't meant to be used outside the local ASN? :)
I do wonder though what the purpose of this block is? If it's to be
used inside the local ASN (as seems to be indicated based upon minimum
allocation sizes) then why not use the IETF marked 100.64/10 space
instead? Global-uniqueness? ok, sure...

There will need to be popcorn though, for this event.
