Some aren't multihomed, but they use larger than /20 of v4 space and so
still qualify. Others are smaller and multihomed and with my permission
(since I configured the BGP for them), use my ASN and routing tricks.
Since they have grown this way, they often have no desires to renumber,
and most have no desire to even bother with an ASN. However, given the
price of an ASN vs price of an ASN and ISP v6 /32; I know exactly which
they'll choose. They'll let me pay the higher membership fees, and just
get space from me.
