In another sign of the apocalypse, I agree with Owen.

If a new company is set up and obtains address space via the waitlist, your desire to limit allocations to “newcomers” would appear to have been met. If that company was then acquired by an organization that already had address space, what would you have ARIN do?

(This is, in fact, how many addresses were transferred prior to the RIRs acknowledging “transfers" occur, i.e., before 2011)

You appear to be arguing that existing address holders do not connect users to the Internet, develop new businesses, nor make up new technologies. Really?
