Private address space, perhaps. But certainly not > shared address space. I'm not sure why a contract with a RIR would be less enforceable than this I-D. On the contrary, I think the chances of correct use are higher in that scenario than the other. It's just bits, you know. IPv4-code on the general internet certainly won't care about these bits. Routing policy however, may. I do not see how having the BCP makes any difference, if the allocation comes from the RIR in either case, provided there is at least one RIR which can assign address space to an entity who will share it.
