It breaks a few things we care about--for example, www.ithaca.ny.us is
a naked CNAME in the the us root:
dsr_lnxcu9% dig @b.gtld.biz www.ithaca.ny.us
; <<>> DiG 9.2.1 <<>> @b.gtld.biz www.ithaca.ny.us
;; global options: printcmd
;; Got answer:

www.ithaca.ny.us. 900 IN CNAME fallcrk.tc.cornell.edu.
;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
. 433340 IN NS J.ROOT-SERVERS.NET.

. 433340 IN NS M.ROOT-SERVERS.NET.

which is, IMO, more than a bit crazed, particularly considering that
ci.ithaca.ny.us is delegated, but there it is.
