That is not quite true, the inability to gain an IANA allocated 
codepoint can make long
term private deployments very difficult, either for the protocol 
squatting on a codepoint
because they could not get one allocated, or to the deployment of a new 
protocol
legitimately allocated a conflicting codepoint.
