GUPI would not be globally routable. It would be a way to make sites
privately communicate, as neither the "limited usage" or the "moderate
usage" of site-locals provides this.

And compared to global addresses the advantage is?

Besides not having to go to a RIR?
not having to have a connection to the public v6 internet in order to
get an address block, or if you are connected, having a prefix which
is stable across changes in ISPs.

Having a connection or not is a policy decision. Stable addresses is an issue on creating PI space. There is no real need to make a block allocation for this.
