Which is why a policy should *always* have a "Justify the address space"
clause in there when the requester wants >/48*. That is the real thing
that a RIR has to do: verify (as far as possible blabla) that the
request really is valid and that the address space will be used.

* = with >/48 I mean a /47, /46... /40 etc, the more/less smaller/larger
stuff is confusing every time :)
