I'd be mildly concerned that people would see "free IP blocks" and start

this block only when they have demonstrated need, and don't have any other
ARIN assigned blocks, would be far more efficient.

Since the goal is to reduce paperwork, I'm not sure about 'demonstrated
need', but I could definately endorse "you get a /24 with your ASN if
and only if you have no other registry assigned space assigned to you".
I specifically exclude provider allocated space, as I'm assuming the ASN
goal is to multihome.
