[arin-ppml] Revised and Retitled - Draft Policy ARIN-2021-6: Permit IPv4 Leased Addresses for Purposes of Determining Utilization for Future Allocations

[Fernando Frediani]

The justification that one cannot pay for something (make a proper 
Transfer as expected under the current policy) doesn't seem to be a 
valid justification to remove a essential requirement for justifying 
need to usage of those resources that don't belong to them.
The principle of usage justification to become a resource holder doesn't 
take in account if something is expensive or cheap to someone.
