I did some searching to try and find if there has been any discussion
on the recommended range of values that IANA should reserve.  I didn't
find any, but admittedly, my searching skills may have simply been
poor.

I mentioned this draft to two colleagues, and our discussion was
immediately that it would be nice if the range of newly reserved
values were easier for humans to read.  If it simply extended from
4,000,000,000 until 2**32-2 this would be a little nicer.

If there has been discussion about this, could someone point me to it?

Operators care about what things look like in the CLI or the NMS.  A
bunch of private ASN all beginning with 427xxxxxxx 428xxxxxxx
429xxxxxxx is a little confusing, especially because 4278190080 would
be a private ASN but 4278190079 is not.
