If ICANN org determines that the registry service does not involve significant Security and Stability implications or raise "significant competition issues" , the proposed new service can remain "confidential" and the Registry Operator is free to deploy the new service after the 15 day period when ICANN determines no such issues are involved. Hence, if I were a registry, I would rather have that discussion and determination made with ICANN Org than via public comment. A description of the RSEP “preliminary determination” process is pasted below along with a link to the RSEP “workflow”.
