Wait, 192/8 contains 2^(16-8=8) = 256 /16s. Each /16 contains 2^(24-16=8) = 256 /24s. 256 * 256 = 65536 (give or take a few which "mean something" special). 65536-24000=41536. Not pretty, but not definitively router death.
Is now when we say..."we told you so..."....???
Who told who what?
You are seeing the great allocation policies and procedures at work...
So are you of the "one-route-per-provider, but only 10-20 provider" school of thought?
fortunately, there will be other address spaces and the IPv4 space can be wrapped up as one TWD...
