That makes very little sense to me since the smaller providers can get a /22 directly from ARIN.
Sometimes resources that are come from a regional registry are not welcomed by a national operator. This can go for AS numbers as well as addresses. And sometimes a national operator is the only way out.
Not welcomed as in, filtered out / these providers refuse to route them? Or do they kick up a fuss on the lines of "you should approach only me, or failing that the LIR, for IPs, don't let me catch you running to the RIR next time" srs -- Suresh Ramasubramanian (ops.lists@gmail.com)
