It takes me about 3-5 hours of work to track down and get an old
unused ASN to be deallocated.  How about updating the 2010 charging
model so that LIRs that return ASNs are compensated?
I don't think this is a good way of using RIR funds.  Why should the
old guys receive even more special treatment?  RIPE's charging scheme
already discriminates heavily against newcomers.
I disagree.

Older LIRs have more allocations which compensates for the time factor of the algorithm. Older allocations need almost no human handling by the RIR vs a new LIR of a year which has a oodles of tickets that need human intervention.
