Not true. Up here in the NorthEast, for legal reasons, there is not one
ISP who will let you broadcast via BGP peer a 44-net block unless UCSD
is to relinquish ownership of the block to you and you can provide proof
of this. Being a CTO for a few ISPs up here, I know the mentality of
corporate lawyers quite well in this regard.
44-net is still viewed upon by many ISPs here to be an experimental
network and is considered a liabilty to directly route on their own
networks. Unfortunately in a commercial world, the dollar will always
win.
This may not be as much an issue in your region so it would be easy to
keep blinded to this scenario.
