I agree, for much the same reasons. However, the maximal one is
incomplete. A fuller list is in draft-manning-dsua-03.txt. Obviously,
as a draft you mayn't refer to it as a reference, but there's no harm in
cribbing. :^)
0.0.0.0/8
127.0.0.0/8
192.0.2.0/24
10.0.0.0/8
172.16.0.0/12
192.168.0.0/16
169.254.0.0/16
all D/E space
Aside from the ones which you list:
0.0.0.0/8 is hopefully obvious.
"192.0.2.0/24 is listed as the TEST-NET." - for use in docs & testcode
"169.254.0.0/16 has been ear-marked as the IP range to use for end node
auto-configuration when a DHCP server may not be found."
