According to ARIN, initial allocations due NOT allot for growth, only 
for the existing infrastructure.

I'd have to lie about existing counts to plan for 5 years. I don't like 
lying.

I have customers who use my space and multihome. There is no reason or 
requirement for them to go to ARIN for this space. They can easily use 
my own. Ideally they would have (and I would have) large enough space 
for a single aggregate leaving their network, but with a minimal 
approach (vs HD-Ratio aligned assignment up front), that won't be possible.
