Routability Provider independent (portable) addresses issued directly from ARIN or other Regional Registries are not guaranteed to be globally routable."While close, that is not the same. The RIPE variant solely guarantees uniqueness of the addresses. The ARIN variant states "we don't guarantee that you can route it everywhere", which is on top of the uniqueness portion.
Agreed - I called it out because ARIN, like RIPE, does not assert that the address blocks issued are "publicly routable address space" (i.e. which was Tim Franklin's original statement, but he did not have on hand the comparable ARIN reference for that point.) FYI, /John
