I agree with a previous comment that a individual can create an
organization, but typically this is done only if there is a real need
(creating a business, a non-profit organization, whatever). Individuals
don't tend to do so, especially because it cost money and a lot of paper
work (every year, or even every month/3 months) to justify the accounting,
taxes, etc. to the government.

If an individual decides to create an organization, that's fine, they
deserve to be allocated a PI if it is justified by the rest of the criteria.

I think with our climate we should not impose undue restrictions on who can and can't have PI. We are after all trying to promote internet penetration and IPv6 uptake. If anyone can justify through the scope of their infrastructure, that they require PI and can pay for it as well as announce it - more power to them I say. Of course, routing table size is of concern.

That said, the equivalent policies of abroad are far more scary. Some of which dictate the allocation (and proof thereof) of at least 100,000 endpoints.
