we're here because, I think, from the top down to the RIR there isn't a hierarchy being created, right? the RIR folk are saying: "Ok, you all want this thing, but upstairs hasn't created the root, so we're going to do the best we can with making a root each that allows us to xfer between RIRs. This is how it's being done, so you have some docs about the mechanics involved and can build/guide from there" is that not the case?
