As Nick states, "I'd be interested to see a real life addressing plan which needed more than this amount of bit space." I'd actually be interested to see a real life addressing plan that needed a /32 bit address space, where the need isn't constructed based on the mere possibility of getting that space instead of merely e.g. a few hundre million times of the entire IPv4 space.
The way I read the proposal, it is not about assignment sizes but about a "aggregation" vs "conservation" conflict. The proponents have, AIUI, a problem where they might not fully assign a /32 or /29 allocation but have different routing policies for parts of their network, which cannot be satisfied without violating s3.4 of ripe-641. rgds, Sascha Luck
