As far as I can tell, and I was on a few of the sipforum calls, the primary problem with "not sufficient for needs of commercial service providers" was that there was no way SIP Forum could bill people a bunch of money from a number given out by IANA. There was some implications by at least one person that IANA was not capable of running a registry but I never got any details on that.
