I fully understand your point of view. However, I see it a bit
different. I do not perceive this as proposal which imposes retroactive
conditions on legacy address holders. For me there is a clear and strong
bond between _original_ legacy resource holder and its legacy address
space (resource). That is why I see this as future action against the
future holder of the resource after its future transfer.

Either, by accepting such ideas, we will be doomed and the registry will
become poor quality or, by rejecting such ideas, we will have a good
quality registry in the first place. Sorry for exagerrating here.
