Ah, Priscilla, Priscilla, Priscilla.  And all along I respected you 
because I thought your design thinking had no class.

It would be accurate to say 192/8 is the traditional Class C space, 
with the assumption of a /24 mask. To have shorter masks in that 
space does imply CIDR awareness, but there can still be significant 
problems -- and carrier filtering issues -- merely because something 
is in 192/8.

Ironically, I once had a /22 in 192/8, which was generally subnetted 
into /25's. There were a couple of sites where I could have used a 
/24, but chose not to because any /24 tends to draw unneeded 
attention of the Address Vigilantes.
