I disagree.  The ARIN proposal seems to be 'PI for any ASN holder' in which
case

a) this will limit who gets the PI space to large organisations
b) be limited by the 16-bit ASN space (and may create a land rush)
c) be useless to the small end site that wants to use unique ULAs

But I may have misunderstood the ARIN proposal :)
