See https://dn42.dev

Hackers already solved their problem by using a chunk of ULA with their own registry.

I really do not see who would be using it. But any LIR can just offer a chunk of their space up for 'non routed purposes' that is up to the LIR.

Of course, when the LIR folds there is an issue for the user's but if you want independence, become a LIR of use a big one that cannot fold (too big to fail! :)
