IPv4 allocation limits are still mostly a scare tactic to get people onto v6. I know dozens of people from my webhosting days with /12 and /16 allotments doing nothing that they pay peanuts for. This isn't a unique scenario.

People sitting on IPv4 addresses don't care but new entrants cannot get new IPv4 addresses since they're all allocated.
