What I meant was we require a technical justification to
give a dedicated IP to a customer but many hosts do not,=20
or they use it as a revenue add by charging for having
a dedicated IP when there's no technical reason for it.
Previously, or maybe still, there was no mandate that web
hosts only assign dedicated IP's when it can be justified.
