as those egacy telcos got all that address space because they could
justify it, what makes you think they would not have the very same
justification fo rmassive need now?

the thought behind one /22 per newcomer is to prevent the biggies from
gobbling it all up instantly and to see that it is there to allw for new
entrants.  of course the new entrants will not get all they need.  no
one will; ipv4 space is gone; get over it.  but they can get enough to
nat or nat64 or whaever to at least get in the door.
