Exactly, you just made the case I've been making in your real life terms.
Nobody including me wants anyone to corner the market. If the ARIN policies
are so hard to meet, that they have the effect of denying resources to real
organizations with real needs, then the policies need to be fixed. Simple as
that.
Sounds like policies are denying your company needs. Your company should be
able to get right sized resources. ARIN was created to allocate resources and
not to find reasons not to allocate them.
By the way no apology necessary for expressing an honest opinion. I appreciate
an honest discussion.

If I mis-interpreted your statement I apologize.
I have had trouble meeting the needs requirement so I am aware and sympathize
with the problem.
I just feel there needs to be some method to be sure he who gets does really
need, not just thinks he needs or worse yet can afford to stockpile more than
he could ever use just in case.
If there is a middle ground I'm all for it. The idea of /20 for no needs test
seemed reasonable to me. Maybe dialing back how need is defined. Personally
I've always hated the 80% yardstick that seemed somewhat arbitrary and almost
unattainable if your assigning small networks to customers.
Mostly we need to see IPv4 die and move on. The route table problem might kill
it a long time sooner than exhaustion.
