What's so difficult to understand about what Paul said?

If IANA calls Paul and says "Hey paul, starting tonight, get your
zone files from here instead of from NSI", guess what? The next morning,
the root servers show IANA's zones and the InterNIC is out of the loop.

They're *in* the loop now because they are the sole arbiter of the zones,
it only makes things easier.
