Here I disagree.  As I (and others have pointed out) there are people
with /32's that have just as much administrative control over their IP
"space" as someone with a /25 might have.  I have *several* customers,
and we're not all that big of an ISP, that have *full* administrative
control over their IP space with the one exception of reverse lookups.


I was quoting someone else and merely replaced the word "network" with
"address_allocation."

Why don't they have reverse lookups?  in-addr.arpa records control is the
only reason I care about having address space under my maintainer ID to
start with.
