How do you expect this to happen?
If they don't pass the needs test for a /20 under this policy, then they
wouldn't pass the needs test for a /20 today.
The only difference would be:
Under this policy, they might get something smaller that they do pass
the test for.
Today, they get nothing.
This policy does not change the needs test. So how do you come to the
conclusion that it will somehow do so?
Do you have any factual basis to believe otherwise? If so, can you please
enumerate what that is?

I have to disagree with you here. While larger organizations are
over-represented as a percentage of organizations served by ARIN, they still
are not the majority of those participating in the policy process. They are
still pretty well outnumbered by smaller organizations.
