The petition process calls for volume (support of 25 separate orgs), and does
not request "substance". The substance has been discussed at length, and I
assume the +1 votes from these network operators come about through
substantive, rational thought.
But since you raised the issue of substance, here's the substance of the
thinking for my own support for the petition. I originally proposed the wait
list block size limit of a /22 back in Feb, 2019 in response to well-discussed
fraud issues. At the time, I thought the waiting list fraud was massive and
widespread and required a heavy hand to combat it. I'm now more of the
opinion that the fraud was massive but not that widespread (affecting a large
number of IPs but not done by a large number of players). My proposal was not
implemented, but the one that was included the /22 limit as well as the /20
limit for total holdings. I think it's too stringent, but more importantly it
punishes a lot of waiting list orgs that were playing by the rules and had a
reasonable expectation that their waiting list needs would be met.
I imagine most of the support from these "newbies" is based on the essential
unfairness of harming dozens of legitimate players in order to prevent
potential fraud of a few. But I don't want to put words in their mouths. I
welcome their input and look forward to their participation in the future.

Not quite what I had in mind. However, you demonstrated the point. Volume !=
substance. Personally, I find the AC to be too activist on occasion. However I
see nothing that needs repair here. I applaud use of the petition process as it
is part of the pdp. The petition itself, while long and detailed, lacks enough
substance itself to make me want to support it. Your mileage may vary.
Warm regards,
