What do you mean by use?

The whole idea behind the micro-allocations from the beginning was the notion
that some pieces of infrastructure:

a) Really do need their own PI blocks
b) don't consume enough IP addresses to meet standard requirements.

The goal was to put guidelines around which infrastructure met these
requirements.
