RIRs are More Interested in Selling NEW than Pre-Owned?
It is a myth that IPv4 is "out of space". It has the same space it
started with if 32-bits are routed.
More bits can easily be used for routing purposes before switching to IPv6.
People seem to be happy with 34 bits, one extra bit at each end. 1+32+1
RIRs may not like the reality of Selling Pre-Owned "Vehicles"
There are many problems out there.

The push to Sell Brand New Virgin IPv6 Space makes RIR life easy. Easy money.
