That's the independently-networking end-user problem we have. PI would solve that. Removal of the 200 customer rule would solve that. One-block- per-LIR would solve that.
Doesn't need DENIC two blocks, one for their production network, and one for anycast? Or would you be willing to subject yourself to an ISP for the production network?
That's what DENIC is doing right now, doing BGP-multihoming with a /48 from their upstream ISP. (Which is certainly something people *do* disagree upon - but as they seem to be happy with their ISPs reliability, it will still work even if someone filters out the /48).
Why not for anycast service?
It could certainly be done, but as there are going to be *many* instances, distributed all over the place, it would be a lot less hassle to have a network from a well-known block that people would know "hey, permit this through our filters, it's a TLD anycast network".
