I'm not?

What kind of investigation is required to grant someone a *single* ASN?

Seriously.  Its not like they are in particularly short supply (there are
~3900 unique ones in the routing tables right now).  If they're close to
free (and the first one really ought to be) then you can also say "use it or
lose it", as it can be easily replaced if you need a "new" one.
