The same was true some years back, when the mobile operators asked for some
dozen /16s for their customers. They didn't get those blocks, they were forced
to look for alternatives, they found alternatives. ("NATs are good. CGNs doubly
so.")
Given the circumstances, for *any* request of "more v4 space for my use case"
it is just and equitable to request a documented evidence the suggested soluion
is the *only* way to accomplish the goal. I don't agree that it is the APWG
chair's decision which request needs to be backed by facts and which isn't.
