If "a select few well capitalized organizations" are going to corner the 
market on space, doesn't that require them to purchase the maximum 
amount of space from existing holders at fairly high prices?

That might serve the *financial* interests of the overall community 
better than policies where the number of buyers is limited by needs 
assessment.

It also provides existing holders with more cash to use for their IPv6 
deployments.
