IMHO, this is not the case here. Let's try not to fall in the false
dilemma here.
there's no false dichotomy.
Non legacy address space falls under various policies e.g. geographic
association and being subject to high RIR costs. These policies are
what causes legacy address space to cost more than RIR address space on
the address market.
If a legacy block is threatened with being converted from something more
valuable to something less valuable, then people will avoid the RIR
transfer route and we'll end up with less accurate registry info.
