Actually, the company pays just the same as everyone else concerning staffing at RIRs. As for scarce IP address space, the last report I heard was that surge slowed down in time to keep it from being a serious problem at this time.
If a company has a habit of making interconnections with other companies and said company has several /16's worth of network, I can understand their desire not to use 10/8, as a conflict on a new interconnect could require massive renumbering. However, I do think there should be methods in place to recognize that those routes should not be routed by others.
For example, 9/8 shouldn't ever be routed by anyone unless IBM changes their mind and decides to route it.
