[address-policy-wg] IPv6 PI resource question!

Hi Sander,

I think it is wrong to not allow an ISP to be independent of it's providers.
There are regions with ISPs that have very few customers, and I think 
this policy discriminates against them.
Why every other company can have PI, but ISPs can't?
Let them be able to receive independent resources without making 
sub-allocation.

I'm sure that IPV6 routing table will explode and PI certainly will not 
be the reason.
If you do not give smaller ISPs PI they have to use sub-allocation of 
any LIR,
and because most ISPs are multihomed they will announce their 
sub-allocation to another provider,
the LIR's addresses will be split and that will be the impact over the 
routing table.

If so then the problem is solved, the ISP will not delegate addresses to 
the customers.
He will give them one address with which they will connect to the ISPs 
network, but he will not allocate it to them.
