Oh, I overlooked that part of your email, but it shows part of your

The point to this is, that with v6 it is not sufficient to be a LIR to get
an independently routable block. You can have as many AS numbers as you
want - you get them, when you need them  - but you will simply not get a
v6 block if you do not have 200 customers, prospective or not.

That's the independently-networking end-user problem we have. PI would
solve that. Removal of the 200 customer rule would solve that. One-block-
per-LIR would solve that.
