I've seen the suggestion of buying a GUA subnet, purely to use as a routable-but-unique prefix that will never collide, and will always win over ULA or Legacy IP routes. When I last checked, it was something like €1 for a /48 off of someone's /32 prefix, complete with a letter of authorization and reverse IP delegation. So it could be routable, if one so chooses.
