I'm pleased to see these figures and I think that this level of detail
is sufficient. A graph showing these three quantities would give us a
view over time that would allow trends to be followed and any large
discrepancies to be noted.
Questions could then be raised at APNIC meetings or on the appropriate
mailing list.
I have no reason to believe that the APNIC staff are doing anything
other than a responsible job here and therefore I don't believe we need
to micromanage their every move by asking for detailed accounts of their
actions.
