There are two separate issues:

- - previous assignments that don't follow the proposed recommendations
        - as noted, there's no goal to fix that

- - 'squatting', or use of ports without registering through IANA
        - IMO, these should not be ignored, but clearly cannot be
        treated as equivalent to 'self assigned'

        i.e., IMO, IANA should list these as "unauthorized use",
        as a service to the community to help those using those
        ports as assigned.

I would expect the draft might address both issues.
