If my interpretation of the IA is correct, the retroactive part is restricted to evaluation of transfer requests.

Your interpretation is the same as mine, correct or not ;) The crux is, though: it changes ripe-623, the "IPv4 Address Allocation and Assignment Policies for the RIPE NCC Service Region" document, not a hypothetical "Transfer Policies" document. correct...

For example, criteria for making IPv4 assignments, 5 years ago, is no longer the same today, the IPv4 policy has changed several times since 2010 and everything that used to be policy in the past no longer matters, what matters is the latest policy document and not the criteria from years ago. I can't be the only one who does not want to go there? I understand what you mean but, seriously, this will affect (based on

This policy proposal's intent is to bring all allocations under the same umbrella (once implemented) and not create more umbrellas..
