My (very large) corporate network uses 172.16 and 10. heavily, which has lead me to set my docker/daemon.json default-address-pools to 84.54.64.0/18, as it's very unlikely we need to communicate with any IPs in Uzbekistan.
One day somebody working days or nights "helpfully" plugged one of IT's loose office-machine-network cables into one of my little lab ethernet switches which had a vacant spot :\
With separate IP subnets it really kept the traffic from crossing, no damage was done, and nobody ever knew until a PC configured for DHCP was plugged into the lab network, and their router wanted to autoassign an IP address to it.
I kinda don't want to share this because:
A) it's a bad idea
B) it means it will be less unique
and
C) I got teased for it a long time ago by my other nerd friends.
But the US DOD has huge blocks of prefixes that it doesn't do anything with, presumably they use it for internal routing so every device they have could publicly route without NAT..
One of those prefixes is 7.0.0.0/8.
My home network uses that. I have never had an issue with S2S VPNs.
However, there have been a few bits of software (pfsense for example) which have RFC1918 hardcoded in some areas and treat it like a public network and overwriting it means doing the entire network setup manually without the helping hand of the system to build-out a working boilerplate.
There's also 198.18.0.0/15, Wikipedia says it's "Used for benchmark testing of inter-network communications between two separate subnets"[1]. Use this if you really want to thumb your nose at the RFC police.
