NANOG/IEPG/ISOC's current role

>Unless they have a real plan & need to get about 128 buildings full of

And if you're a customer of Sprint you'll get aggregated in something
like /14.

Not if you are a customer looking for portable address space.

down to AS path length):

Look how comes out announcing the most long prefixes in the TWD. At
least the other providers that announce them accept them from their
peers. There were 3795 prefixes covered by 205/8 to 208/8 and
growing, mostly small very difficult or impossible to further
aggregate prefixes.
