So I’m perfectly ok with your response and happy to forget all this.

Let's forget it. I interpreted (too) to mean you had a policy proposal and
"the problem" was your belief that a policy proposal would solve "the
problem". It won't, and beside being out of scope this seems like a lot of
unnecessary drama. The thread is archived. And the more you put a spotlight
on it the more it may make people wonder, even aside some change in minutes
after the fact. Doesn't really matter.
[ policy ]
No one wants ARIN in their routers. Nor do they need to be. This is the
right outcome, out of scope, and let's focus on educating and highlighting
the bad actors and people who repeatedly fat finger their configurations.
Did you know that 5 networks account for more than 20% of all errors?
Repeatedly? Look at Andre's data and work from there. IMHO.
Hope that helps. Happy summer! It has been too long.
Best,
