[address-policy-wg] IPv6 Policy Clarification - Initial allocation criteria "c)"

In my opinion, closed networks today, could be connected tomorrow, and consequently advertised, so why exclude them ?

Excluding them will mean that if a network is disconnected, so no advertised, even by accident, they could miss the right for that allocation ?

Jordi
