But as this is a moral, not a factual, question, it's probably not too much use arguing the point. > In the same way, whatever resource is being used via RIPE, is a cost to the > NCC and that needs to be paid somehow.

Realistically speaking, there is not much in actual additional costs other than the time to support requests. This could or could not be reflected in the distribution and cut-off limits of the LIR sizing which, in turn, can be influenced and decided upon by the RIPE community. I am not saying that this should be done. I am merely stating that this could make sense and that it's not as clear-cut as you seem to make it appear. Richard
