of unadministered, always-on boxes that aren't supposed to be running
inbound services in unrouted space would save all of us headaches.

That's almost a better justification for NAT than address-space conservation. ;)

though, the NAT'd people can still see each other and cause problems, 
but it still cuts down the exposure.
