I don’t believe that RPKI should be the enforcement mechanism.

I’ve really been thinking about non PA space. I see the appeal of RPKI
to help in cases where an organization isn’t returning space to an ISP
after a contract has terminated. I won’t go so far as to say I am
advocating that all assignments should be permanent, that’s a matter
of civil and contract law. I am saying that if RPKI is or can easily
be used as an enforcement mechanism, then there will be opposition to
its deployment.
