It help if the provider log all NAT translation.

The provider can tell to the LEA, given a specific target IP, that
"this/those user(s) established a connection to that target IP".

Typically it would be a single user, but even in case of many users,
traditional other criminal investigation/correlation will help LEA in
identifying the right user.

For example in Italy Fastweb (www.fastweb.it) fiber internet provider,
that have for end-user a big MAN with private ip address, do NAT
translation logging and LEA reporting when required.
