That is exactly the right way to count ;)

Which kind of makes the point, that they deserve the /32 and any
organization that has at least quite a number of employees can thus get
one. If you are too small, then you are simply: too small.

Compare it too the following: Ask a telco for 10 million phone
numbers... a large company will actually use them, a small company won't
ever do that in it's lifetime. Of course, when you have grown larger one
can always get a large chunk, but then you really need it.

Greets,
 Jeroen
