No, I am not making an argument, I am observing that there is a difference in 
the way these two RIRs perform this function.

Both AFRINIC and RIPE NCC public database dumps on their FTP sites but the RIPE 
NCC data is cleaned to remove more person data than the AFRINIC data dumps. The 
AFRINIC data includes the unique nic-hdl of contacts for resources but the 
dumps published by the RIPE NCC replace the unique nic-hdl with DUMY-RIPE:

I think the only thing we disagree on is where the transition happens. In my 
experience, the overwhelming proportion of businesses are genuinely tiny, 
ranging from an individual to a dozen people. And even when businesses grow 
larger they can often buy packaged hosted services and tie everything together 
with the cheapest Internet access they can buy. Lots of businesses buy and use 
services designed for the residential market instead of higher quality 
"corporate" services.

I disagree. If the home user market needs to know or care about which version 
of the Internet Protocol is being used, or even know what the Internet Protocol 
is, things have gone wrong. Some parts of the corporate market do need to know 
but not most small and medium sized businesses. They just buy packaged services 
and can legitimately expect them to work as expected.

The providers on the list at http://www.worldipv6launch.org/measurements/ with 
the big IPv6 deployments didn't survey their residential customers and ask them 
which version of IP they'd prefer. They made IPv6 an integral component of 
their systematic network upgrade.
