If you want to just use your legacy address block (wth the same services that
where in place at ARIN's formation), then you don't need to enter into an LRSA -
but please do still update your registration in the ARIN registry to have current
contact data, as this helps deter potential hijackers.   If you want to have those
services that were developed since ARIN's formation, then I'd suggest reviewing
the actual current LRSA agreement, as it is significantly improved over earlier
versions.

and probably: "If you think there are still improvements, show up at arin meetings and lobby for change"

yes?

Absolutely.
