first 12 months so we just reclaim whatever resources are allocated
then."  (yes, comments about more address space ending up on BL's were
made, and that he probably doesn't pay because after the first 3
months the address space is 'worthless' to him...)

How should this get fixed? Is it possible to make policy to address
this sort of problem?

If this is the case one could argue that ARIN should be reserving this
"worthless" address space to be used when they receive similar requests
in the future. There's no reason personX should get fresh, clean address
space when they make additional requests.
