So a "maybe someday" ASN?

So anyone who has PI space and doesn't already have an ASN gets
allocated one regardless of need.
Any new member who gets PI space gets an ASN allocated as a matter of
course.

Don't allocated one if they don't want one. But if they want one, and they already have PI, or getting new PI, then why say no? And its not regardless of need, more accurately in anticipation of future need.

If someone gets an ASN, and uses it, when they get PI, they will have a much easier time porting to a new provider, or better yet, becoming multi-homed and/or participating in an IX in the future.

So, don't force them to get an ASN, just don't force then wait until they multi-home their PI either.

Any additional ASN requested by a member must conform to existing policy.

The exact wording of the current policy may or may not be right for the situation, but that is the basic idea. Also, you should still be able to get an ASN to do PA multi-homing, if you are multi-homing with a cut-out from an upstream provider.

Is this where we're at?  Change the proposal and see where we get to.

Yes, please.

Why not make it your APNIC membership number and be done with it :).
That lowers the barrier even further and means that people wouldn't need
assistance applying for them.

That's silly, your APNIC Member number should just be your credit card number. :)
