If you choose that approach to kludging around your IPv4 problems, the consequences of that decision are yours alone. There are other ways of making “better” use of your remaining IPv4 address space. Though they are also ugly. Get over it.

Your argument seems to be “I want to plunder the remaining IPv4 at the NCC because I don’t want to buy addreses on the secondary market”. Well, that’s simply not a good enough reason to change the current policy. That approach may well be good for you and your business but it’s not good for the community as a whole.
