You claimed that ENUM is a critical service and therefore deserves
special treatment as far as addressing policy is concerned.

I think this is just wishful thinking.  ENUM (in the public e164.arpa
tree) hasn't got a significant user base.  Certainly, it's not
critical Internet infrastructure, and so it doesn't need special
treatment for address allocation.
