Actually, I think better routing protocols saved the day. The major problem was that they were assigning /8 blocks to people that needed more than a /16 block. Routing was not based on a mask. The A, B, C class was determined by the IP address, not a mask. Better routing protocols allowed variable size blocks, so a /anything could be assigned.
