Because: - for a small LIR it's still too expensive (usual quote is 11-13 USD/IP for /22 to /24) - there is some risk of "bad quality IPs" (blacklists, bad reputation, bad and slow-to-update geoloc data) - missing business procedures/confidence (issue of using escrow account does not help) > Some are taking advantages of this situation (open multiple LIR) to get IPv4 > space.

However, the honest ones will not have to use the same practices that they already consider "cheating". > I hear your arguments but I don't think 2015-05 is the right answer for the > community.
