I think ARIN's stance is they can update whois and issue
reallocations/assignment information into whois based on their Legacy
status. If they want to permanently give their space to someone else,
documentation wise, the most they can do is allocate the entire space to
the other person. They are still considered the primary holder and the
only thing that makes it "permanent" is the contract signed between them
and the other party.
Given the reallocation, I'm sure the receiving party also can update whois.
