[arin-ppml] Draft Policy ARIN-2024-5: Rewrite of NRPM Section 4.4 Micro-Allocation

[Roman Tatarnikov]

I do agree with Bill's proposal as well. Breaking a big cumbersome task into multiple small ones will get the things moving faster. So updating the definitions first should help everyone.

However, I do believe that the word `Ethernet` should be avoided. While it addresses today's situation, we don't know what's going to happen tomorrow. Ideally what we want is to write a policy that will address not only today's needs, but will be prepared to withstand challenges of time. I can behind of what Owen and Tyler proposed, however I'm not a wordsmith and can't settle on what's the best replacement for "Ethernet" should be. All I know is that there should be one.
