Are you saying the policy should lock it down in both directions?

"LIR's will assign a /56 to residential users, nothing bigger,
nothing smaller.  LIR's will assign a /48 to enterprise users,
nothing bigger, nothing smaller?"

My wording contradicts nothing in RFC 3177.  You can follow RFC
3177 and 100% comply with ARIN policy with my wording.  You can
also not follow 3177, do other things and comply with my wording.
Is that too permissive?
