1/ What is the ROI? I think there is only a few prefixes in the default-free zone that are managed by RIPE NCC, but not assigned or allocated by RIPE NCC. So putting this machinery in place might not have that much benefit, while the cost of 'getting it wrong' could be substantial.
This was my first thought as well, but then I discovered this IPv6 thing :)
3/ Once the resource is assigned, the resource holder can create a ROA. In the lifecycle of a resource it isn't clear to me what the benefit is to have a ROA covering it when it is not yet assigned/allocated.
It does stop people from announcing unassigned space and spam from it (because the announcement would be "invalid" and no longer "unknown").
