It's funny that you would debate me on this point. If you make this assumption,
you should open an Errata on your implementation.
Excerpted from RFC 2328:
Router ID
A 32-bit number assigned to each router running the OSPF
protocol. This number uniquely identifies the router within
an Autonomous System.
OSPF Router IDs need NOT be routable.
