I'm not aware of any policy (we do both Dynamic and Static allocations for DSL depending on the account type. Our preference is dynamic as it makes load balancing between POPs easier).
That's a fair enough reason for using dynamic addressing.
It sounds like someone's confused some wording somewhere in 6.2 of IPv4 allocation and assignment guidelines (http://www.apnic.net/policy/ipv4-guidelines.html) [snip]
I suspect that this might be the case. Since those guidelines and the Internet Resource Management training course were the only locations I found relevant mentions of DSL and dynamic addressing on the APNIC site.
