[dns-operations] Dumb question: why is it that some registries limit the nameservers that can be delegated to?

I'd always thought that this was kinda because of the way EPP is written --
not that it is actually required, but when reading the docs you see the
nameservers object and kinda assume...

I think at this point much of it is hysterical raisons.

I don't think the execution is relevant when it was obviously a bad idea in
the first place.
This is like putting rabid weasels in your pants, and later expressing
regret at having chosen those particular rabid weasels and that pair of
pants.
