In which case HD-ratio will apply, or at least I assume RIPE-301, 2.6 would equally apply to IPv6 as it does to IPv4.
First of all, one doesn't have to close/merge LIR if "can afford" it. Moreover, existing LIR can (there is simplification here): 1. setup new LIR (withing the same organization; for example in another country, part of country, with different funds, etc.), 2. send RIPE-425 form, 3. obtain another allocation (probably /32). I assume, that in most cases this first IPv6 allocation is more than enough and HD-ratio in this scenario is not used. Note that there are organizations which (ab)use the current policy using that method just to obtain another "initial" allocation and this is exactly "you get as much address as you can afford" which is not a good policy.
