When should RIRs allocate v4 PI-blocks so small they won't be globally
accepted? Such would in reality become small "private" blocks. For v6
the discussion is still open wrt the allocation of private (unannuced)
addresses, but for v4 we should stick to rfc1918 and ask those who don't
qualify for an allocation big enough to pursue de-aggregated PA-space
which at least will be routed through its wider aggregate.

The wording in the policy should instead reflect the need for
consistence between the minimum size of allocated blocks and common
filtering recommendations for the related IANA container-block (/8).
