Surely this can be dealt with appropriately by inclusion criteria on
the various local projects - I know enwp has some guidelines on a
cut-off for companies, though I have no idea what they are, and I'm
sure most other projects do as well.

If we want to worry about small insignificant organisations, don't do
something that relates to all organisations.
