Eh. Off the top of my head, I see two categories of breakage:
1) things that hard-code a list of =93real=94 TLDs, and break when =
their expectations aren=92t met, and=20
2) things that went ahead and trumped up their own non-canonical TLDs =
for their own purposes.
Neither of those seem like practices worth defending, to me. Not worth =
going out of one=92s way to break, either, but=85
And in the latter case, like =93alternate roots,=94 that=92s not an =
argument against creating more TLDs=85 They=92ve already been created. =
It=92s an argument against doing so in an uncoordinated manner, which is =
the source of the breakage.
