I would, perhaps unsurprisingly, argue that putting a proposal through AA-WG doesn't mean the community is trying to police things, rather the proposer feels that it is network abuse they are trying to stop, but that is perhaps a point better discussed over a beverage or perhaps a jam doughnut at RIPE 80.

Thank you for explaining, much appreciated.
