In Paris I had dinner with the guys who were running the conference
network, and explained to them why we wanted the allocation size.
They had a bunch of plausible ideas, none of which I remember in
detail (darn that cheap but tasty wine from southern France) other
than that if WEIRDS succeeds, it could either be a field in the
response for the allocation, or they could SWIP all of the
suballocations. I suggested that for both scale and privacy reasons
ARIN would probably not welcome 50,000,000 SWIPs from Comcast, but
they noted that large networks can run their own subservers, and it's
quite possible to have entries for individuals that don't include the
PII.
