You did not establish any proof that there will be hundreds of
thousands of additional PI prefixes in global routing tables. I find
this claim questionable, at best.

It seems to me that € 50 / year * PI prefix is a cost that's being
paid today. Of course, you are free to argue that this is not enough.


Maybe more people would agree with you if you wouldn't use
ridiculously inflated numbers, both for the projected PI prefixes and
your desired price of € 2000 / year * PI prefix. Or tried to write
your emails in a slightly less heated manner.
