I've been directed to put all of the internal hosts and such into the public

space and a VPN for external people to get to it, is pushing against this
In many scenarios the VPN'd hosts will ask for the names from the public
DNS anyway, so I feel your client is right and it would be better for
you to go with their wishes.
