[arin-ppml] Fwd: Advisory Council Recommendation Regarding NRPM 4.1.8. Unmet Requests

I don't think it should be regardless of the size. That must always be a 
limit.

If it's over, it's over and anything little left should favor newcomers 
to make sure they can properly exist in the Internet and do business in 
Dual-Stack. Leaving to any prefix size just make it more difficult for 
new businesses which always help to balance the whole ecosystem. Having 
a limit is the most reasonable thing always in a scenario like this.
