What do feelings have to do with NCC membership? There are many
members of the RIPE NCC I'd rather not share the organisation
with but that is not reason to deny them membership.

that's not an "allegation", it is a STATEMENT OF FACT. The "ip
address market" rgument is wholly invalid because the transfer
policy clearly states that transfers can only happen to a RIR
member. 
The only exception is legacy space that was never brought under
RIR authority.
