Sure, they can assign an /48 to every inhabitant. 8->

The RIPE WHOIS server does.  Well, they still have got a year to carry
out their promised business plan involving 200 assignments.

Huh?  The goal is 200 assignments within two years.  If it were
strictly enforced, LIRs would simply assign prefixes to their
employees (and if there aren't enough, to their pets), but this is
probably not in the spirit of that rule.

To me, this just illustrates that LIRs are as good as end users when
it comes to responsibility for global resource consumption.
