OK. How about I re-word this a bit and see how it goes:

...should read:
"I think this misses the point. ARIN doesn't require or want you to SWIP
your /30 and /32 allocations. An _address_allocation_ that small just doesn't
require that level of public contact visibility."
Now, can we all agree that /30's and /32's are small allocations in the
grand scheme of it all and that the size or the organizations/networks that
use addresses in those allocations can not be accurately determined by the
size of the allocation alone? Good.
