Not at all. We all scratch our own itches. Been there, done that. :-)

In any case, I don't see much of a downside with this proposal. The
only thing one could conceivably be concerned about is excessive
consumption of IPv6 due to LIRs grabbing larger allocations than they
have a need for, but considering that a /29 is way more than enough for
almost everyone and that the IA states that «LIRs would need to provide
comprehensive documentation» in order to make use of this policy I
don't see why anyone would bother trying to abusing it.

On the other hand I would love to see more IPv6 happening in the
governments in the region, so if this policy can help make that happen,
I'm all for it. So without further ado: +1
