So, if the new company does not yet have any address space, it can request
its ASN via an existing LIR... but if the new AS wants to announce anything,
it will either
- have to start up its own LIR (which includes getting a /20 allocation), or
- have to request a /20 or larger assignment from an existing LIR,
in order to get an 'announcable' prefix, right (i.e. one that will not be
filtered out anywhere)?

kind regards,
