In my opinion it does not end the validity of this question, because

  - PI applications will come from non-LIRs as well as LIRs, where the  
policy is NOT changing.
  - PI applications from LIRs need to have 'yes' selected here.

If your PA is routed on the internet, and your need some PI which will  
not be routed on the internet, then in my opinion there are two  
different routing policies for these subnets.
