Indeed. The idea behind the proposed change is (sort of) "those who can be bothered to understand the system and become a LIR are allowed".
I cannot see any requirement of "understanding the system", just "become a LIR", which boils down to "shell out enough money to RIPE NCC". Do you follow the illusion that LIRs are more clued on average than non-LIRs?
Basically the proposal wants to change:
"People who pay enough money to RIPE NCC and are ISPs (or lie convincingly enough) and claim a certain customer count projection"
to
"People who pay enough money to RIPE NCC and are ISPs (or lie convincingly enough)"
