because denic is so <blank> as to be unable to find an old unused swamp C, does not imply that global allocation policy needs to be changed.
I don't think this is the issue. They want to do Anycast, and want to do it in an official and documented way, so people can easily see what's going on, without resorting to "find a swamp C" network. That's why I'm in favour to have a policy that permits allocations for specific, well-defined Anycast services. That allocations would come from a well-known block, so people would know to not filter /24s from there (and so on).
