In my humble personal opinion this is the result and natural side-effect
of stimulating things like IP Leasing from those who have a lot of spare
IP Address to those who have been seeking it specially in the times of
IPv4 exhaustion.
Some people, even those who are not directly involved in these type of
business, belittle it and say that´s a normal thing, that we have to
accept it, etc, etc, but it is not.
It is not by chance that this has never been an accepted practice to
justify the need for resources to any RIR, because IP addresses are a
shared owned resource and should not be available to be disposed at will
by any resource holders.
Because of this distortion this said "normal thing" causes in the market
it may have side effects like this and why everyone that cares about
stability of this system should strongly repeal any kind of IP Leasing
in order to not worse things even more in the ecosystem we are all
involved. Today is in AfriNic, tomorrow may be at your nextdoor.

Even though this relates to a whole different Regional Internet Registry,
I think that some (many) of you may be interested to watch this video and
to learn what's been going on of late down in the AFRINIC region.
