  Where is the big difference - both registries have given away the blocks
  of addresses to their down-stream entity/ies?
  
  And given the current rules forbidding reservations, any sort of
  "post-factum" aggregation can only be achieved by a renumbering
  mechanism.
  
  Btw, a more liberal way of interpreting the 80 percent rule might be
  looking at all the address space that is managed(*) by a particular LIR,
  and not only the currently "open" allocation(s).
  
  Wilfried.
  
*) "managed" to be discussed/defined...
