Thanks for the clarifications, John. It would seem like adding this definition should be a slam dunk! However the current text seems too out of step vs current practice, as I try to outline below.

I think we should probably use language like this for the definition, because it describes what the Org ID *is* and what it represents, vs the current proposal ARIN-2024-1 text which is (incorrectly) prescribing *how it is used*. > Likewise, do all Org ID's have resources, or are there Org ID's that do > not? > > (JS) There are OrgIDs that do not have resources at times due to several > reasons.

This clarification reinforces my belief that the proposed policy language would make these states dubious if not outright invalid, which is not what we want from the new definition.
