I believe, ISPs should also allow ipv4 prefixes with length between /25-/27

I also believe that RIRs and LIRs should allocate /27s which has 32 IPv4

for most of the
small and medium sized organizations and also home office workers like
youtubers, and professional gamers and webmasters!
It is because BGP research and experiment networks can not get /24 due to high
IPv4 prices, but they have to get an IPv4 prefix to learn BGP in IPv4 world.
What do you think about this?
Not going to happen any time soon (if at all).

Think about how much network gear is out there that is straining under the
current size of the global table. Opening the flood gates to many more
prefixes with /25-/27 routes in the global table would mean lots of gear
needs to be upgraded/replaced sooner rather than later.
