What I'm failing to understand, and again, please excuse me if I'm
oversimplifying, is what data do you need from researchers,
specifically. What specific actionable data would be helpful? Why does
the lack of the data prevent you from applying an ACL.

What I am suggesting is that the community at large needs measurement
data, rather than individual network operators (which already know if they
do or do not implement BCP38). Only with a long list of operators that DO
prevent spoofing and a list of those that DO NOT, backed up with a decent
data set (enough measurement points, enough measurement tests, across
enough time, with an openly shared methodology), can the community start
to encourage non-adopters to change their position. Just my two cents
though...
