Hi Hiroki, I just read again all the text of the actual policy, just to make sure I didn’t forget anything.
Unless I’m missing something, according to that, the HD-ratio is only checked for subsequent allocations, so it has no effect on the initial IPv6 allocations.

Now, when hostmaster evaluate the request bigger than the minimun allocation size, they detemin the allocated size based on the HD-Ratio. HD-Ratio is clearly written in the policy document. In the case of your policy proposal, it seems that it is not clear and it is difficult for hostmaster to objectively evaluate the allocation size.
