Juniper and Cisco are equipment vendors, not ISPs. If the DOD /8s are used in some documentation examples, that's a whole other thing.
If network operators are taking the theoretical network blocks provided in training examples and attempting to copy and paste them into real world use, that is a whole other problem with training and education. And lack of oversight by senior people who should know better at their company.
1/8 is also a whole other thing because it's a legitimately announced block controlled by, as I recall, APNIC. If it's in some peoples' 20 year old bogon folded that's their problem, not apnic's.
