I would bet that if you were a large enterprise WAN like, say: "the
Limited" (clothing store) that has +1.5 endsites, you could say to
ARIN (for instance): "Hi, I have 1.5k endsites, all connected over a
third-party WAN, we use BGP and have unique routing policies for each
site, can I have 1.5k TODAY and since I plan to expand 500 sites this
year 1k tomorrow" you would probably get that allocated, if you can
deal with 4-byte.

it's worth asking the hostmaster people I suppose.
