I really don't understand the need for these kind of overblown NAPs.

Do you talk to your NAPies or not? If you aren't planning on sharing some basic information about where you might collide then what's the point of having a NAP in the first place?

Doing this completely in advance seems counterproductive to both sides as there is no room for maneuvering within keeping the spirit of a NAP. There should be some quid pro quo going on anyway shouldn't there? You want to put up a mightly global? Maybe you need to kick something to your friends so they don't decide its too much.

Otherwise you are essentially agreeing to have a race to some breakpoint and whomever gets there first 'wins'.

If that's the case then why bother with the rest of the game anyway?
