I have an amendment idea that I partially think it may have its place in
the document.

The thing is, many ISPs don't really understand the difference between
resources (sub-)allocation and assignment. ISPs that are also LIRs just
know they cannot assign more than /48 to a customer (end-site, to be
precise ;) ). But if their customer is a small non-LIR ISP, who is
requesting IP addresses for deploying IPv6 to its clients, they should
not give them an assignment of shorter prefix but rather a suballocation
or a aggregated assignment.

If the small ISP only gets assigned /48 and tries to divide it to its
customers, then not only is there little room for assigning "at least
/56 to each customer" but it also is breaking the RIPE IPv6 policy by
sub-assigning assignments.

This is quite different situation from the IPv4 scenario, where small
non-LIR ISP typically employ CGN, where it's completely valid to just
use IP addresses assigned to the ISP itself. I already got a few
questions concerning this topic.

The questions are:
 1. Is this topic important enough to be in this document?
 2. Is this something RIPE-specific or is the situation in other RIRs
similar?

If you think it's worth it, I can try to draft some text around this topic.
