Excelent question, Bryan.
IMHO the fact that not everybody can BGP announce their subnets could be a
reason. In that case you can not differentiate between legitimate ampr
traffic to your network and public traffic, since the access to your subnet
has to be done via public IPs.
But as long as you don't offer any network services which are specific for
to the non-BGP announced ham community, there is not needed to support the
mesh network.
Your network is in this case just another IP range on the internet.

Why?
I announce subnets via BGP, that should be enough. I maintain the single
end
point for the 44 network (UCSD gw) is a bad idea, and it's not my fault it
has
broken routing for more specific networks.
