I think the point isn't so much that being UScentric is ok/not ok but rather
that for many providers, most of their DNS traffic is .com/.net related.
That being the case, there seems to be a good case for changes to
infrastructure for those TLDs being of interest to at least some NANOG
recipients...  I know that when I was still wearing my ISP hat, our DNS
traffic was about 80% composed of either com or net queries..
