Wrong link (I would ask to add a note to that old link)
This is the correct one:
http://www.lacnic.net/web/lacnic/manual-4
Allocations criteria to end users refers to RFC6177.
So, I do not know in which part we disagree. But it does matter, the
important fact is that ISP can chose what allocation to provide to
en-users (as long it based in need and under certain technical criteria
-RFC6177-) and it is not dictated by the RIR.
