You are treating the AS Number as your locator.
As has been discussed on this list, that has the wrong granularity for operators needs.

More importantly, you are requiring that each AS keep of full list of all hosts in all customers. Not only do enterprises not want to provide this ifnormation to their operators, but that is potentially a VERY large amount of information. Which operators do not want to have to distribute across the entire AS. (Even residential operators would not want to have to distribute the IDs of every host at every home across their entire AS.)

Yours,
