Absolutely. A standard would give ground rules, and would be something to point to when you have to go to a client or customer and say "these are your options."
Instead, we are looking at a routing system where some traffic will flow on some networks if it is a longer subnet of a class B address, and will not flow on some networks based on arbitrary filter decisions. Some kind of RFC based consistency would be great.
I've always wondered, where is the RFC for network 24?

There shouldn't be one. RFC's are ostensibly protocol spec's. There are some documents that describe operational realities and suggestions but when this idea came up a few years back, there was serious concern raised about collusion and restraint of trade. --bill
