Is requiring registrants to sign a contract that codifies their rights 
and responsibilities "refusal"?  I don't see the requirements here as at 
all onerous, and wouldn't see alternate registries as viable.  As an 
ISP, if a customer asked me to route space based on the information in 
some alternate registry because they were unwilling to sign an RSA and 
pay ARIN $100/year, I would consider that suspicious enough to have 
another abuse scrub run on the customer, and refuse to route the space.
