More interesting would be re-requests - organizations exhausting an
initial allocation and requiring more. People asking for the first
one just indicates initial adoption rates.
Other than experimental blocks, I am generally under the impression
that IPv6 allocations are designed to avoid that being necessary for
an extended period of time. If that is not true, then that's a flag.
