A question has come to my mind and won't disappear...
What are the future of "allocatable labels"?
Let's assume the case where
registrant-X applied for label-A,
and label-B is marked as 'allocatable' by LGR,
then, label-A is delegated to registrant-X.
As far as I understand, the above means "only registrant-X has
the right to apply for label-B in the future." If registrant-X
wants label-B to be delegated, he/she needs to make a separate
application to ICANN. And ICANN will evaluate the label-B by a
human panel (maybe supported by some automatic mechanism).
Then, what's the difference between
(1) all variants are allocatable
(2) some variants are allocatable and the others are blocked
(or invalid)
I understand (2) can make the applicant know that the application
for some strings (that are blocked/invalid) will definitely be
rejected in any case. However, this does not reduce the number of
TLD delegations significantly because the applicant does want only
a few variant TLDs in reality, for money-wise reason or usage-wise
reason.
then,,,,, why is (1) so evil?
