I think the minimum allocation size reduction is a good idea as it reduces
the need for PI and waste in PA.

PI should still be available for those who ask for it. There are indeed
projects that would not be likely to need a /21 but might need independent
space. It's a waste making them to take a /21. I can to some degree
understand this desire for large PI blocks (/21 and above) but there
should be place for the /24, /23 and /22 PI blocks.
