It's not up to ARIN to solve any of these cases. Therefore, there is
no such thing as a reasonable policy in this context.

The world does not need to know the identity of individuals using
IP addresses and it does not need to know the physical location
of individuals using IP addresses. All the world needs to know is
which organization fulfills the stewardship role for any given
range of IP addresses. If there are any abuse issues with a
certain IP address, it is both necessary and suficient for ARIN's
database to identify the organization to which they have delegated
the stewardship role.
