Eric, I’d argue that does fall within the definition of incompetence called out by Izaac.

I’m talking about how you run out of RFC-1918 space (if you choose to use it in the first place) without incompetence.

You don't, you wastefully assign a /24 to every unique thing that you think needs an internal management IP block

ISP that's also acquired many small/mid-sized ISPs to run out of v4 private IP space that way.

Please explain to me how you uniquely number 40M endpoints with RFC-1918 without running out of
addresses and without creating partitioned networks.

If you can’t, then I’m not the one making excuses.

it is definitely possible to run out of RFC-1918 space with scale and no incompetence.

No, it isn't.  It's the year 2021.  Stop making excuses.
