Okay, while this address touches the CPE, it does not cross it.

The CGN space seems like a very good place to use 240.0/10.
A single organization often controls and specifies all equipment which
will use the address space, and even in the cases where customers have
their own equipment, a lot of it will have no problem with 240.
