No, what ARIN has declared is that *routing* isn't something *ARIN* is 
tasked with fixing, and its job is to hand out IP addresses (since, multiple 
times before it specifically made "no claims as to "routability" of those 
addresses"). Therefore, it isn't something that *ARIN* should worry about.
