Well, I see two problems, one is that whatever solution be found needs community consensus. Otherwise we may end up with ten anti-NICs or so? Or at least many unhappy customers? The other problem is that (at least I, but may be I am missing something) don't see how at the global systems level this resolves the issue of appropriating address space to, say, a j-random, perhaps new and ignorant with uncertain future, service provider who would like to have 10,000 customers a year from now, and wants 10,000 Class-C numbers accordingly. I still don't understand what the groundrules for address allocation would be, at least at the level below your top-level allocations. Even if you push the problem a level down, it would still have to be resolved. The resource will be scarce somewhere. I am trying to focus on the IP address allocation guidelines here, not the speediness of registrations, with the latter being more of a technical (though apparently painful) issue, and probably a matter of having enough resources allocated.
