And we've tried appealing to people's better natures to return unused space. The result confirmed what most of us thought already: people mostly don't have better natures.
Then how do you explain the success that IANA have had in recovering address space as reported by Bill Manning and now, Leo Vegoda, over the past 10 years or so?
Leo has already proved that a (fairly simple) reclamation job takes a lot of time and resource. This is for a /8 that no one much wanted and no one much used.
What proof do you have that this was simple? Talking to Leo (and I did say "fairly simple").
