We can't write policy based on recipient benefit or PTO programs. Many
companies offer more than a week and authorize two. It doesn't scale.
While we were told some large companies can't get it done, no-one said
why. Without that add-on, I'd assume opex and then compare to the
smaller networks who (so far) have not complained. A little equity?

If it were because ARIN's systems are too slow for the volume, that
could be interesting.
