It is a thankless task, but something that becomes increasingly important
as $provider starts to run low on IPv4 space to assign to customers.
Thank you

It is a long-winded,
Groups that have such things I can only presume do not do a good job
of periodically going through and auditing their IP allocations or, if
they do, then they don't do a good enough job of cleaning up all the
details.

I suspect many providers don't have good business processes for reclaiming
IP space that was assigned to customers who have either disconnected or
voluntarily returned the space.
The provider I started out with in the mid/late 90s bootstrapped itself
with IP space from MCI (now, CenturyLink... I
I have the same thing with a service that was disconnected a couple years ago.
Four IP blocks of /24 size are still swipped to us and we’re announcing them.
I don’t put any customers on them and just use them for temporary things for
fear that some day someone will want them back.

A service I disconnected more than 2 years ago still has a /24 of their
space SWIPED to me. Their NOC closed the ticket I opened to remove. Unknown
if it's actually in use for another customer.
I also had a conversation last week with another ISP (we were renegotiating
our contract) about this.
I'm sitting here in the office on a Friday performing some IP
maintenance and I see that one of our upstreams is still filtering an IP
range we haven't used in years. I dig into it a bit more and it turns
out a major carrier still has them SWIPed to us.
This got me curious and I dug more
