The IPs aren't being used for actually traffic routing. They're just included in the HTTP header so the web application can have something to use in any session

The IPs aren't being used for actually traffic routing. They're just included in the HTTP header so the web application can have something to use in any session, abuse, anti-spam, etc functions. You are correct that routing across Class E is practically impossible due to hard rules in place in Microsoft Windows and elsewhere.
