Just like the people who get 69/8 blocks should expect them to be
fully usable as well, right?  Surely if one reserved /24 means you
can return space and get new space assigned then the inability to
reach some percentage of the internet is an even bigger, and more
immediate concern that should warrant the same treatment.
