I think in any model, unless ICANN enforces compliance the model will fail. We use the EPP model with registrar pull in Australia, and I haven't heard of any recent instances of abuse. There is no mechanism for the losing registrar to deny a transfer. The difference is that the ICANN equivalent in Australia (auDA) rigorously enforces compliance by the gaining registrar.
