Not if you are a customer looking for portable address space.

Number of prefixes covered by 205/8 to 208/8 with length >18
advertised to AS1673 (preferred route only - I think this will come
down to AS path length):

Look how comes out announcing the most long prefixes in the TWD.  At
least the other providers that announce them accept them from their
peers.  There were 3795 prefixes covered by 205/8 to 208/8 and
growing, mostly small very difficult or impossible to further
aggregate prefixes.
