I think if Owen simply changes the title from:

Policy Proposal Name: /24 End User Minimum Allocation Unit

to

Policy Proposal Name: /24 End User Minimum Assignment

it should put the entire text once again into consistent usage,
right?  At that point, the change would refer entirely to the end site
assignments, not to ISP/LIR allocations.
