My interpretation was what Randy implied, and that ARIN
wants an agreement with everyone who gets a (presumably
unique to the agreement) TAL to protect ARIN.  That would
seem like a lot of overhead to maintain to me (since as I recall
a TAL may never, ever (ok, very rarely) change), but then
appropriate risk management has always been an interesting
thing to watch in the (potentially litigious) ARIN region.
