regardless of how one might think about RPKI, there are ROAs out 
there that reduce the visibility/reachability of certain prefixes and the 
general assumption is that announced prefixes would like to be reachable
even if the operator doesn't care about RPKI and ROAs from the past anymore, he 
most likely cares
about reachability from a pure operational point of view.

my email was not about: "How much does one like RPKI?"
it is about whether it is acceptable that RIRs (and more specifically ARIN in 
this mailing list's context) 
notify affected parties of their prefixes that suffer from stale ROAs.
Even if one dislikes RPKI entirely the opinion could still be "yes notifying 
those parties makes sense
to restore reachability".
