Another "Freewill" by Rush fan, I see.... ;-) Your dating yourself...
An IP address adjacency is no guarantee anymore that the devices are in
the same room.
I can put 198.199.199.191 in Chicago and purchase a layer 2 circuit to
Denver and put 198.199.199.192 on that.
Please don't perpetuate the myth that adjacent IP's are always in the
same geographical region. There's enough wanna be Sorcerers Apprentices
out there cobbling together PHP websites that claim to "analyze" your
nameservers who don't know their piehole from their otherhole.

Having worked at tiny organizations for the majority of the time I
served on the ARIN AC as well as NANOG committees and board, this
argument rings hollow.
At the end of the day, it's a matter of priorities. Prudence would
dictate that one participate in governance and standards bodies if
they are doing stuff that directly affects one's business. Prudence
also dictates that one follow BCPs regarding putting nameservers for
one's zone on topologically distinct networks.
merlot:~ rs$ dig eclipse-networks.com. ns | grep -w A
ns1.eclipseinternet.com. 172800 IN A 198.199.199.191
ns2.eclipseinternet.com. 172800 IN A 198.199.199.192

In both cases, people sometimes prioritize differently, and they often
get away with it. There may even be valid business reasons for doing
so (cost outweighs benefit for instance).
But if you choose to not participate, you've still made a choice.
