I would agree this topic needs further discussion and hopefully policy
improvement and implementation.

These size assignments should not be just for ISPs.  As an end site
that, for various reasons, should have larger than a /48, we seem to be
stuck with either multiple /48 allocations, or attempting to justify a
/32.  Ideally, there would be size categories between 48 & 32,
especially for end sites that receive allocations directly from ARIN.

Thank you.
