But the problem is that you don't know how the fee schedule might change 
in the future, and it would be nearly impossible to capture every possible 
permutation and create a rational outcome.

This would essentially be a sunset-clause, we had issues the last time 
we tried on of those.  I'm not saying we can't or shouldn't do it but 
that I want more input before I add one into this policy.

Note: we can't adopt this after Barbados it has to come back to the 
policy consultation at NANOG in June as a Recommended Draft Policy 
before it can be adopted.

Ok, I'll go with that.

Ok how about this then;

The fundamental argument against this draft policy is that the primary 
problem being solved is a billing or fee structure issue and not a 
number resource policy issue in itself.  A significant minority are 
adamant on this issue to the extent they oppose this policy. The 
majority of the community recognizes this issue, and would prefer /32 be 
the sole minimum allocation size for ISPs and other LIRs.  However, the 
majority are willing to accept the tradeoffs incorporated into this 
policy.  As there are too many ISPs that fit into the /32 allocation 
category for the fee level associated with the XX-Small category to be 
fiscally responsible and sustainable for ARIN. Furthermore, there are no 
obvious solutions to this problem within the fee structure domain that 
are fiscally responsible and sustainable for ARIN, especially in the 
long-term.

In the comments section there is a suggestion that /28 reservations 
should be made, that is an operational issue.  The policy issue is that 
they can get up to /32 for sure without renumbering.   So from my 
perspective, a /32 reservation is a policy imperative, /28 is a 
recommendation for operational practice.

I haven't heard anyone object.

This seems like a reasonable and sensible approach from my perspective. It
maintains the current practice and therefore creates less opportunity for
confusion or error.

That's why I oppose fee-motivated policy in the first place.

I'm thinking more drastic, as in "fee schedule changed, instantly 
struck". The policy proposal is dependent on fees, nothing more. So let 
it be dependent on the possibly of those fees changing and force it to 
go back through the PDP as soon as that happens.
