While I can see where you are coming from, this would open the door
for perpetual "this is the last time, promise!" situations. If this
was accepted policy, time passed, and addresses were used up, what
would happen with all new LIRs which only have one /21? After the next
upgrade, what would happen with those which only have one /20?

Given the history of those threads, I can not see consensus forming to
undo this change.
