This is actually very helpful and useful information/ Perhaps any policy 
written should only require larger blocks to go back to ARIN. In reality, if 
we're putting a /22 or /21 limit on waitlists and the transfer rates are this 
low, I am fine not requiring IP blocks to go back to ARIN.

I think this shows that even at the /21 level we do not have ripe transfer 
abuse for IPs to another organization.

Michael -

While it is true that we haven’t experienced high levels of /22 - /24 transfers 
of wait list blocks in the past, it’s also been in a period of time when 
requesting much larger blocks was possible.

With a modest cap on the size of wait list issuance, it is possible that the 
thwarted demand may reappear as many more smaller block requests, and hence why 
it is natural to explore additional policy factors (such as lengthy period 
prohibiting transfers, total resources held, etc.) in a renewed wait list 
policy.

Thanks!
