I have my doubts, based on a ~decade of observation. I don't think ARIN is deliberately evil, but I think there are some bits that'd be hard to fix.I believe that anything at ARIN which the community at large and the membership can come to consensus is broken will be relatively easy to fix. Perhaps the true issue is that what you see as broken is perceived as "working as intended" by much of the community and membership?
That's a great point. Would you agree, then, that much of the community and membership implicitly sees little value in IPv6? You can claim that's a bit of a stretch, but quite frankly, the RIR policies, the sketchy support by providers, the lack of v6 support in much common gear, and so many other things seem to be all conspiring against v6 adoption. I need only point to v6 adoption rates to support that statement. This is an impediment that I've been idly pondering for some years now, which is why I rattle cages to encourage discussion whenever I see a promising opportunity. Put differently, you work in this arena too... you've presumably talked to stakeholders. Can you list some of the reasons people have provided for not adopting v6, and are any of them related to the v6 policies regarding address space? ...
