So for all those people who argue we should be preserving the remaining address space in order to allow for new ISPs entering the market for as long as possible (which I agree with), we need to be realistic about end users who want (what was once called) PI space and not make the only option to be "become an LIR" with the result that we erode the free pool faster (i.e. allocating /22 when a /24 would be more than adequate.)
