Question 2: why wouldn't LIR 1 form a new company and call it a startup to get privileged access to addresses? Or, might LIR 3, LIR 1's long standing competitor, form a new LIR to gain an advantage in the competition for resources?
Most, if not all, networks of significant size have a small chunk of spare addresses they can recycle for transition services. A new LIR OTOH has nothing and could theoretically be blocked from entering the market.
And Question 2?
