Using the organization to justify the need for the organization is circular reasoning.
I would have thought the role ARIN (and the other RIRs) has to play is clear from it's charter (registration of number resources to ensure uniqueness and fair allocation of a finite resource). And the need for someone or something to serve that role is best highlighted when it fails (e.g. duplicate ASes in RIPE and ARIN last year).
Anyways, the non-answers to these questions are very illuminating.
Feel free to not deploy IPv6. Or get a /48 from a tunnel broker or your ISP. You have plenty of options, just one of which is provider independent space from ARIN. cheers Marty
