Requiring that LIRs maintain a new and otherwise totally useless 
organization object for every customer who need a delegated abuse-c 
attribute is very inconvenient.
At least unless that object can be simplified to contain only the 
abuse-c attribute and no other data.
I believe that the original proposal (abuse-c attributes on hierarchical 
resources) would be much easier to deploy, even if it initially requires 
adding the abuse-c attribute to a (usually) small number of top-level 
inetnum objects.
If LIRs with hundreds of directly-assigned resources are concerned about 
modifying them (are they?), then why not support both schemes?
