To me it seems obvious (but maybe wrong)....
Sure the network operators who decide to turn on validation have to
weigh the risk of themselves doing mistakes as well as others like ROA
publishers doing mistakes.
And when they decide to include information from a Trust-Anchor-Locator
operated by AfriNIC, against your good advise, hmm....
... they might just think that protecting themselves from IP space
hijackers is worth the risk.

I am not a lawyer.
