Brian,
we - the RIRs - are in no position to tell the ISPs that they are stupid and
that they "don't understand". I think even the mighty IAB should be a little
careful before going that route; it is the ISPs, after all, who convert
integers to address space by routing traffic based on it.
Policies will change as we go along and all those involved understand more and
get more comfortable with things.
