Keith, what you are saying here is that the utility
company is going to have to use PA addresses, that it
does not own, to configure tens of thousands of devices
on thousands of subnets, and be forced to renumber
if they want to switch ISPs, even though these devices
have nothing to do with the public Internet, just
because you don't like SLs.

Total nonsense.

Why? That would be the case i they wanted to connect - which is not unlikely for the future. I know cities in Sweden where building owners are monitoring the utilities via public connections and I know places where the road administration uses the public Internet for monitoring devices.

In you model they would use site-locals, but what happens the day they connect to the public Internet?
