I opposed this policy on the basis that the impact on LIRs who would not
be able to justify a /22 within six months did not seem to have been
considered fully.
My understanding is that without a sister policy which reduced the
minimum allocation size, this would effectively shut out some LIRs from
getting addresses at all, since they would not be able to justify a /22
within six months, while they might previously have been able to within
twelve months. Am I correct in this understanding?
