Prop110 stated this prefix to be managed as a common anycast address for
locally scoped infrastructure
support for DNS resolvers. Service providers, or software developers,  or
CPE makers has no obligation
to support special control over 1.2.3.0/24 traffic as it was not mandated
by engineering community (e.g. IETF).
Allocating address blocks for specific protocol/application is not the job
of RIR address policy.

One scenario can be : ISPs without 1.2.3.0/24 control, receiving anycast
announced by various sources
to redirect 1.2.3.0/24 traffic. This scenario causes additional concern in
name resolution.
