Suggest adding a section 2 definition of "Tie down" as "an aggregate allocation by an LIR/ISP to a serving site".
(The term serving site was defined as part of 2011-3 IIRC).

The other option would be to modify the proposal to refer to blocks allocated to serving sites instead of using
the new term "tie down".
