Actually, it seems to me that your argument is that ARIN/RIPE/APNIC policy prevents people from multihoming.
As per a discussion on this list a month or two ago, the root cause of the 'difficult judgments' is, IMHO, that multihoming relies on extension of the global L3 routing table. It need not do so for every application, subject to some intelligence being applied to protocols and networks.
Blaming Verio for the RIR's allocation policy simply does not make sense.
