[arin-ppml] ARIN-2024-5 Rewrite of NRPM Section 4.4 Micro-Allocation - Community Questions

[Fernando Frediani]

Hi Martin

I am not sure I get your point, but are you saying that it is worth this 
extra /24 for this specific usage in IXPs even knowing there will be a 
major waster and just a tiny part of it will be used effectively ?
If that is the case, in normal conditions I would agree that is fine 
such usage, but in a growing scarce scenario as we are I think 
acknowledging a waste like this having viable alternatives is not a good 
think to do in the interest of community. Nothing wrong with justified 
usage for the LAN, but not for this other stuff pointed.

Regards
Fernando
