My interest & participation in this issue is of a personal nature and
a result of years of direct personal involvement in the Internet
community, and not as a cisco employee.

Why would cisco care how numbers are allocated?

I believe if you check the subscription roster for this mailing list,
you'll see that employees from several (if not all) of the organizations
you mentioned above are subscribed to this mailing list. I just happen
to be a vocal, opinionated subscriber.
