[arin-ppml] ARIN-prop-169 Cleanup IPv6 section 6.5.7

[Owen DeLong]

I support this proposal as well.

I am the author of 2011-3 and to my recollection, failing to remove this language was purely an oversight.

With a return requirement it made sense to keep the original text allowing /35 recipients to move to /32 without return.  I honestly don't recall if it was simply an oversight that we didn't change the text to replace 6.5.7 or if we did it that way to minimize the changes made in last call.  However, the modified ARIN-2011-3 called for the text to be added to the section and not replace the section, so to be clear ARIN Staff implemented ARIN-2011-3 as instructed by the policy.
