I think the point here is that IANA no longer assign to orgs(and
somewhat transferred initial legacy spaces maintenance to RIR) and
since they now only assign to RIRs the records already reflects the
relevant assignments. If there is any regular update that is required,
it will/should be at the RIR level because there is apparently no major
changes that will happen at /8 level.
If so, then the IANA table should be clearly annotated so that people
know that the "Designation" for these non-RIR legacy entries is the name
of the organisation that the allocation was *originally* made to.
Although because 51/8 has been updated to say "UK Government Department
for Work and Pensions", that isn't actually true.
