Hi Daniel, I'd like to share once again what I replied to someone with the same sentiment as yours: Other RIRs understand very well that the benefit of the IP address market: to help utilize unused addresses to fulfill the necessity. They recognize the dire effects of such dormancy especially when left unmitigated. In the first place, IANA itself sees that there is a need for *global coordination*. Thus, its authority to allocation which is then extended to RIRs, should not be merely seen as a form of division, rather a bigger avenue for coordination. (end)
Therefore, establishing a global community is understood to be a part of the RIR history you are talking about in the first place. The RIRs are there to avoid further centralization, which is a direction harmful to be taken. Moving on, while I do recognize that organic growth is an important concept, it is quite a hasty assumption to treat IP services like Cloud Innovation as enemies of such growth most especially in the context of the internet that is working on a vast scale and is fast-growing.
