E.g. what happens if an IXP has a /23 and has 254 IP addresses used after 1Y? They will be obliged to downgrade to a /24, according to the current text. Also I don't know what a special circumstance is. The problems in section 5 can be fixed easily, but it depends on how the authors want to handle assignment upgrades / renumberings. I'd suggest either dropping the 1Y utilisation requirement to e.g. 40%, or else that if you reach e.g. 80% current usage, you qualify to receive an assignment of 2x the current, up to /22. Those figures are plucked out of the air btw. The point with them is that they are not 50%, which is obviously a magic number when the natural increase of assignment size would be to double the size of the block.
