But exactly the same can happen with sub-allocated address space. Why would transfers be any different? At least with a transfer you can show that the responsibility for those addresses was (temporarily) transferred to another organisation. With sub-allocated addresses the responsibility remains with the original holder, who would then probably even have a bigger problem explaining everything and getting off the spam lists.

This seems to be an argument *in favour* of using temporary transfers...
