I am kind of curious of the ICANN/IANA position on this?
*4) Neutrality and impartiality in relation to all interested parties, and particularly the LIRs* All organisations that receive service from the new RIR must be treated equally. The policies and guidelines proposed and implemented by the RIR need to ensure fair distribution of resources, and impartial treatment of the members/requestors. https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/new-rirs-criteria-2012-02-25-en Principle #4 of ICP-2 goes to emphasise a very important aspect of Internet Number Management which is "fair distribution of resources".
From the context of a party without reasonable Internet Infrastructure, lacks an ASN, has no IPv6 allocation. Would you call the over 6 million IPv4 allocations to an entity that does not participate in the Internet ecosystem itself, fair distribution?
