It's not ?
From the charging scheme on the RIPE site, PI space is currently counted with a higher score as PA space:
http://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/charging.html
A /21 PA has a score of 1 against a /24 PI which also has a score of 1
only for the first (2?) year(s) after registration. after that pi space and customer-org as numbers are no longer counted in the lir billing score, after all, the PI-users intention is to be independant of providers, and therefore doesnt want the possibility for the lir to screw him over (change prices, contracts,etc) in the long run either. -- Sven Olaf Kamphuis CB3ROB DataServices Phone: +31/87-8747479 Skype: CB3ROB MSN: sven@cb3rob.net C.V.: http://www.linkedin.com/in/cb3rob Confidential: Please be advised that the information contained in this email message, including all attached documents or files, is privileged and confidential and is intended only for the use of the individual or individuals addressed.

If a PI assignment will 'only' cost 50 euro's a year, won't everyone and his dog with a good story on why they need PI space just request their own range ?,
Over all the years, PI assignments weren't included in the LIR billing score after the year of assignment. There has already been a rather strong incentive to obtain PI space for customers.
