Those IP addresses are PA assigned addresses, so they are tied to a
certain provider.
In addition to that, it's to keep the size of the global table down, and
to make sure we can have contigous blocks of ip addresses to announce.
We enherited some old last resort blocks, eg 193.162.0.0/15 which are
scattered all over the place, this has the consequense that instead of
having one announcement for this blok, it's at this very moment 47
announcements, this is a mess, and there is no reason the keep getting
more of it.
