So in say 10 years you are not managing it anymore? Most NREN's already
have plenty of address space, so why not use that address space?

Do you need a /32 full of address space or do you want PI?
If you only need a single /48, then requesting a /32 is quite silly
don't you think? And also quite a waste.

Do note, that this is nothing against you, but if you get a /32 because
you want PI, then a lot of other small organisations (read: individuals)
may want one.


Constructive part, same style as to the NATO one:
 - You have 50 PoPs.
 - You have say 150 employees

(both can be a plan, you might fail but hell.. it still is a plan)

That is already 200. Become LIR and get it.

Greets,
