The idea is good, but I would really really want to see what does it
give implementation-wise.
Generally speaking a text like "interconnection with several (= how many
???) external (how do you really define external) entities" should cover
the need for one AS. A second ASN (*autonomous* system) , well it should
require a second "autonomous" system/entity respecting the same
conditions.

Now we should probably ask about NCC's capacity to evaluate what is
"external" and "autonomous". For LIR creation it doesn't seem to be very
effective at this task. It didn't seem very effective in the past for IP
address allocation neither (criteria slightly different, but not so
much).
