Talk about locking someone out of a policy lock, stock and barrel and flushing "stewardship" down the drain completely. Most MDN users are going to go straight to 4.2.1.6 only to find that they are locked out because they aren't contracted as an ISP. They could buy another OrgID... and pay another exorbitant fee if qualified I guess. If we really want to limit users to a /22 why not do it across the board? I'm glad we moved beyond ARIN trying to define business terms between networks and ARIN customers, but we should move beyond this entirely and abandon it.
