The waiting list is a necessary and fair way to manage what is left for
the RIR to distribute to organizations according to its mission and
based on similar rules that were ever used. If there is fraud so let's
fix rules for the addresses from these pools as it has been discussed
recently about the minimal wait period for transfers.
What is out of the RIR's mission is shape its policies to favor the
transfer market which should never be seen as something normal or
natural or first option.
