Sure, in the near term, maybe everyone will filter route advertisements for ULA-C prefixes, but what about the long term?   Since they're globally unique and traceable to their owners, there's less technical justification for filtering them.

I think the biggest hurdle would be to get them advertised.  That would include running BGP with an ISP and advertising the prefix.  That usually costs money.   I suspect the sites that are capable of doing this (technically and financially) would just get an RIR prefix.
