I still support the proposal as-is. The proposed change does not weaken any data that is in the database, and in fact may allow it to be more obvious that these address ranges are used by end users rather than be unclear what their status is. Furthermore, I will state that Denis' objections are

Hi everyone, I mentioned this during the WG session but want to bring it up on the mailing list, what is the definition of assignment-size. In the IPv6 implementation of AGGREGATED-BY-LIR there is an assignment-size attribute, which is proposed to be optional for the IPv4 version. >From the
