Because it's already done. It's called DHCPv6.
It already has extensive running code :-)
It's not even that complex.

I would love to request address space via ASA from the DHCPv6 server.
That would all happen within the ISP's ACP though.

Right now (on DSL lines), the address space mostly comes via radius.
Which is to say that the problem has been centralized by MBS builders into
being someone else's problem. Advertising the address space is often done by
OSPFv3, but there are additional things that would be easier for the DHCPv6
server to do, such as the DNS delegations that homenet is working on
finishing.

I think that CASM could very nicely define/extend the prefix ASA to deal with
DNS reverse names, and as the RIRs (George) said, better link the delegated
prefix to clear ownership records.
