I suspect many LIRs got their /32 just because they could get the 
allocation and in reality did not have a clue what they really need for 
deployment and are now stuck with HD ratio.

Question for RIPE-NCC staff: do we have any data or 
estimation/approximation, how many LIRs wanted additional alloc because 
of this reason and got it with trade? How many are asking for it? Would 
/29 cover majority of this "trades"?

Are there any clueless LIRs, that got /32, but today with presenting 
real data they would get more than /29?

We need some statistics here, if possible.
