There are many reasons I don't even have to imagine.

- large companies with multiple organisational units which are
  not separate legal entities, yet run their own LIRs.

- A company spinning off a business unit and wanting to establish
  a LIR prior to making it a separate entity.

- A LIR buying another and running 2 LIRs in parallel at least
  until they finished their re-organisation. This scenario may
not be affected but I'd like to have some clarity about that.

Generally it is a good idea to sit down and think some before
making knee-jerk decisions that regulate into the business
affairs of members. Especially for a monopoly provider.
