If you can justify a /8, ARIN will allocate one to you (not that I speak

I don't know about APNIC, but ARIN's rules are generally structured to make
justification of a /8 all but impossible. I suspect this is actually a typo
or misreading of some sort.
The business of the rir's is providing ip addresses to their members. if
withholding the remaining address space became more important than
supporting the needs of the community of interest, then they've obviously
failed their membership.
