Why? What actual problems is this alleged stockpiling causing? Is there any v6 stockpiling taking place? Why would anyone need/want to stockpile v6 when the *lowest* allocation they’d get gives them orders of magnitude more address space than they could ever hope to use.

I think the onus is on you to provide a clear problem statement before making policy proposals. It’s not at all clear there’s an actual problem to solve.
