I'd like to add that they may be badgered just as hard from the other
side not to do too much in this regard; i.e. registrars telling them
"Don't tell me how to do my work, even if you think it's wrong". Sure,
BCPs may help, but we stopped doing pre-delegation checks for a reason.

As Antoin and others have already mentioned, we still do checks, and we
inform on a number (but not all) of them. One thing we found (at least
that has been my conclusion) is that 'they are doing it better' works
*much* better than 'you are doing it wrong'.

Removing delegations because of a lame delegation is highly likely to be
out of the question.
