I think the issue we need to tackle is ensuring that packets originate,
at minimum, from the organization who holds the address space in the
source address.

I'm happy getting it down to the organizational level (note that in a
larger enterprise organization it may not even be to subnet level).  At
least then we have an accountable party.
