I would agree that free allocations should be scrutinized closely to
ensure need.  For 8.3 Specified Transfers however, no purpose is served
when a transfer is rejected between a Company with an unused allocation
and a Company in need.  The unused IPv4 block at the source Company
remains unused.  The rejected recipient Company must seek alternatives
which may include applying to ARIN for a smaller block from the free
pool.

I am opposed to this policy.  For as long as ARIN has existed this
community has been very vocal in supporting the needs basis for
address allocations and assignments.  I have no reason to believe that
this position has changed.
