Roland, in short: We're not addressing RFC1918 in this doc. It's outside scope.

The 1918 method is different. It would be an interesting discussion to have, in 
another document.
 
For the LLA approach, we were told in no uncertain terms that we should NOT 
make a judgement, but just list the facts to consider. That's what we tried to 
do. Each operator should be able to take those and make his judgement. 

Please let us know where we're not factual or misleading - that needs fixing.
