There are no such rules. Your upstream is wrong. ARIN's IPv4 addressing
policies can be found at:
http://www.arin.net/policy/ipv4.html
The closest thing to what your provider is claiming is the section on
cable modems, but it only talks about SWIP requirements. There is nothing
about not assigning unique addresses to broadband clients.

You don't want to go down this road. It will break things and you will
have many unhappy customers on your hands.
