No, I mean that you should be able to trade in both PI and PA blocks for a single new PI block. The policy, as written, only allows trade-ins of PI blocks.

I don't see any explicit reference to what justification is or isn't necessary. My fear is that the folks actually processing trade-in requests will insist on efficiency documentation (a la RFC2050) before proceeding. While I'd love to take your word that won't happen, why not make it part of the policy and eliminate any possible confusion?
