I would like to support that comment from Clement, it seems to me that
huge players will not get impacted much by this charging plans. As I 
see it, some small ISPs (let's say with a /19) will get charged a 4th 
of what an incumbent (3215,3320,3303) would pay for their IPs, as the
cap is a /15.

I might have missed the reason why the amount of IP doesn't look like it
has been considered above this cap, at least for model A. I understand
that it's a minority, however they " use " most of the IPs.

I think we are missing a point here in the calculation, the ~300
ish LIRs with more than 500k IPs could have a higher fee, I suspect that
most of them can easily afford it.
