<div>Hi Paul,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Why would this be unsafe and/or fragile? As was already mentioned the root zone has to include glue for whichever name you choose anyway, due to the position in the hierarchy - so it's just a matter of reducing unnecessary dependencies for us. Happy to
hear thoughts besides the "religious" believes. :)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>

<div>This works, of course, but it feels a bit fragile for me. Is there a history of this being unsafe? Of being more safe than NSs whose names are in other TLDs?</div>
