Actually, many naming and addressing management experts consider that
the existence of a root defines a unique namespace.
Also, the issue of authority for a namespace is a distinct and
separate issue from affection for that authority.

No William, we are talking about multiple roots, NOT
separate namespaces. There is one namespace. There cannot be
collisions. Inclusive roots do not create collisions - only ICANN
has done that so far.
There are people who have a great disagreement about how ICANN
is going about its business. There is a large piece of the world that doesn't
want ICANN to be the authority.
No public RSN that cares about its credibility will create collisions.
