Should this draft become an RFC, and should ARIN pony up the /10, ARIN's staff is likely to look askance at requests for address space for CGNs. IMO, an IETF RFC is not the correct place to tell ARIN or other RIRs how to allocate space; the ARIN/RIR policy processes can be much more targeted to the needs of the community, and in this case, I think your concern has already been addressed.
