This is very true.
The problem is, in this case, the governing body under discussion
(RIPE) is a coalition of (the analog of) polluters (and potential
polluters). In such circumstance, it is no surprise that the pollution
is bad and isn't getting any better.
This is why I suspect a solution may need to be "imposed from on high"
by IANA/ICANN fiat.
