The term "legacy" here is relevant. Under what agreement would an RIR evaluate an allocation that occurred prior to the existence of the RIR?

Good points all. I fully admit to ignorance of how to remedy this and the other valid points raised in defence of the status quo (except by raising the issue when appropriate). Not sure what could be cited as presidence either, except perhaps the transition from feudal landowning aristocracies a few centuries back. Roger Marquis
