Yes. After doing it once one always has the lurking suspicion that one day one will come up against the LAN of someone else who has had the very same idea — whose birthday, or lucky numbers, or CRC16, or whatever just happen to make the same octets in the network part.
Then there are things like having an ISP that uses various parts of 10.0/8 for its internal infrastructure. Even my own ISP uses 192.168.100.0/24 for its own purposes on customer-premises equipment.

From my email to a prospect earlier this week, after reviewing the contract they sent me:
“I don’t accept contracts with binding arbitration requirements. If <company name redacted> behaves ethically, there will be no disputes. If there is a dispute, it can be settled in open court.”
Choose your clients carefully.
