As written, this is not an editorial change. It’s a nit, but as written this actually changes the policy from ≤/20 to </20.
Propose that we modify the new text slightly: “Only organizations which hold IPv4 space less than or equal to an aggregate /20 are eligible to apply.” This would provide the same clarity, but remain consistent with the existing policy.
