We're talking about public IP space, that just doesn't happen to be
announced outside of a particular AS.
If the intent is to prevent folks from reaching out and touching
random network infrastructure devices directly whilst still allowing
traceroute to work, iACLs and/or using IS-IS as one's IGP and null-
routing the infrastructure blocks at one's various edges achieves the
same effect with less potential for breakage:

Note that a good infrastructure addressing plan is a prerequisite for
both of these methods.

Any information security mechanism, process, or procedure which can
be consistently defeated by the successful application of a single
class of attacks must be considered fatally flawed.
