More information might be needed to determine adverse cases, or possibly some
exemption for rural players that might not be able to attain a 3rd participant.

Is a public exchange point really a public exchange point if there are only 2 participants?

It is if it's open to more participants at any time.

Isn't that just private peering for the time during which no one else participates?

Not necessarily, a private peering would almost always be implemented very differently than an IX.

I'm not seeing the public good, justifying the draw down of a /24 from the public free pool, for two participants.

The value of more potential IXs becoming available to the public far outweighs the tiny bit of IPv4 space that this proposal might consume.

Clearly I'm against raising the requirement.
