As a requirement, that would be a change in *current* ARIN business
practice, which is to deny registration of natural persons as an ARIN
organization.

That hasn't always been the case.10 years ago ARIN accepted
registrations as a natural person. Those registrations remain valid
until additional resources are requested. And of course the further
back you go the muddier it gets. ARIN has been revising this over time
as a business practice without policy guidance from the community.
