Ah. here is the rub. When you ISP buddies come back, you should ask them to return the origianal /22 for a /20. That way, the total size of the routing system stays the same!
If everyone did a clever job of allocation, and the ISP in question had grown quickly enough, you'd be able to expand the that /22 into a /20 at the very same address because the next 3 /22s would still be available. But I've already beaten that horse...
