tl;dr: don't support as-is, but could be convinced

I support the idea as it's a bugfix policy proposal, but the wording is
need to be improved.  At the moment, it ties the policy to the idea of the
RIPE NCC being the routing police.  Probably this isn't the intention.

It may be better to consider alternative wording, e.g.

Even better, remove the requirement completely as it's pointless.
