I suspect you would get a similar answer if you asked people "Would you be willing to pay ARIN for whois services" or

Actually, since those are relatively inexpensive, I suspect there are plenty of people who’d be willing to cover those 
costs, if they needed to be paid separately.  However...

I've always been under the impression that the fees charged annually to my orgid were in part to cover the costs 
associated with running the registry, which by definition involves a certain amount of risk.

…the RPKI costs are many orders of magnitude higher, and that’s before anyone sues us.  So, the question is how much of 
your fees you want to see going toward RPKI, and how much of that you want to go toward trying to make it functional, 
versus mitigating the risk when it’s not.
