The retort you want to make is that ARIN just wouldn't do that. That's
not the kind of people they are. Fine. So update the LRSA so it
doesn't carefully and pervasively establish ARIN's legal right to
behave that way.

John/Steve,

Bill makes a reasonable point here. Is there a way to, in the next round of
LRSA mods, include something to the effect of:

Under the ARIN Policy Development Process, the board will not ratify any
policy which exclusively affects LRSA signatories in a manner inconsistent
with its effect on other resource holders.

===

That's probably not ideal wording, but, I hope it conveys the general idea
and I hope smarter people can find better language. It does seem to me
to be a reasonable request and consistent with the intent of the LRSA.

If you prefer that I submit this via ACSP I will do so. However, it seems to
me it could fall within the same scope as the other clarification John offered
earlier.
