That wasn't the distinction I was referring to. I am saying that I'm not sure we want to let an org (regardless of type) who only needs a /28 get a /24 from ARIN. 

In addition to keeping that minimum level of needs justification, the only technical distinction I would retain in my proposed liberalization would be that multihomed orgs should be able to get blocks as small as a /24 from ARIN (as they'll be going into BGP regardless) whereas single-homed orgs should still go to their upstream for up to a /22. Again, no distinction between end-user and ISP orgs. 

I'd also welcome your input on the proposed text.
