It appears to me that you are still trying to somehow save IPv4 from
exhaustion. That horse is out of the barn and gone.

If they actually need the resources, then a needs-based policy does not present
an obstacle. Where's the problem?
However, not having such a policy will mean that folks who _don't_ need
resources can also get them, which makes the (IPv4) scarcity problem even worse
than it already is. That benefits speculators at the expense of those who
actually need resources.
You appear to be arguing against your stated interests.
