Part of the real problem has been that the IETF failed to carefully study, and

The bottom end of of this space has little trouble renumbering. Laptops
renumber all the time, reboot your router, interfaces flap and the
devices that dhcped get addresses out of the pool in a different order.
lack of address stability across interface transitions is generally
assumed across dynamically configured devices.
