Can you please expand on this? What are the risks that registrants of "not
really real PI" face? Andrea's slide included a bullet stating that:

"Many LIRs do not have contact with ASSIGNED PI customers anymore"

Should I understand that to mean that there is a risk the LIR could take 
back the assignment?
