I don't think you understand what the job of the RIPE hostmasters is about.
It is not their role (or nature) to punish you, if you motivate why you require specific resources, you will get them (within the policies that are currently in place.)

If you didn't provide the correct motivation, sobbing here doesn't make it better.

The hostmasters only do their job, as it is our job to discuss and change the policies if we don't agree with the current model.

Paying per object does actually reflect somewhat on the amount of labor/time/effort that the RIPE NCC workforce has to deal with you.

Just my 2cp.
