I think you vastly underestimate that task. Try coming up with watertight definitions of "for profit" and "non-profit". For bonus points, get these definitions to stand up across the NCC's service region: national variations in company law, legal entities, governance models, etc. I strongly dislike the notion of sub-typing within these special case allocations to IXPs. It adds complexity and there don't seem to be any benefits from doing so. Let's just have a policy which makes space available to IXPs and be done with it. That's already one special case too many IMO.
