It's also worth noting, perhaps, that in the APNIC region both

proposes capping PI at a /24, which I suppose may further diminish
concerns that allowing PI in the first place will make the last /8 go
away too quickly. On the other hand, limiting PI at /24 but PA at /22
would still cause the effect of forcing organisations to become LIRs, if
the organisation's requirement cannot be fulfilled with a /24 only.
That's kind of pointless, if the only assignment they'll ever make as
LIRs is to their own organisation. So I think it would be even better if
we did like APNIC did and capped both PI and PA at a /22 - that way, all
the internet organisations in the region gets to have life rafts of the
exact same size. (But perhaps they should be equally priced also...)

I like your reasoning.

Regarding the parenthetical comment, I think it would be sane if there was a slightly less-than-proportionate price increase going from /24 to /22, and that this was decoupled from the whole PI/PA choice.

Maybe it should cost more to be a LIR, but I think that is a different issue than the address block size.
