That would be the equivalent of going nuclear on the Ethos deal because 
it would bring up all sorts of validation problems. It would also more 
than decimate the number of registered .ORG domain names because managed 
TLDs typically have low regisration volume. The .COOP is a good example. 
There is brand protection activity in .ORG registrations so unless those 
historical domain names pass the theoretical validation, the gTLD could 
lose a few million registrations.
