Why not?  Well because a full-validity, primary AA binding of ULA-C to
an ASN makes no operational sense.  

If we agree that the only routing of ULA-C is private small-i internets
(COINs), then those organizations that want to do this need to run their
own RPKI AA's. (AA = Authorization Authority)
