Bear in mind if they later change their mind, you’ll be on your own and could well be in a world of pain. Have a nice day.”.

I’d agree, with the slight modification of:

“…  if they later change their mind, you and any of the unmeasurable number of folks who happened to listen to ISO-3166/MA regarding the status of the user assigned codes will be on your own and could well be in a world of pain.”

(Only half :) — the reality is that lots of folks use the user assigned codes for all sorts of reasons and if they’re repurposed, it’s probably going to be a mess).
