I've now completely lost any semblance of what policy-advice-related topic
this thread (and even the original one on .COM) is supposed to be
discussing.

Wrapped up in a pile of motive-impugning, stating the obvious, dredging up
the old "we're not qualified to speak for end users" trope and having
At-Large guess at why registries do what they do, I'm not seeing the point
to any of this. What I am seeing is needless distraction from what I
thought was the main issue at hand, which is the reaction to shenanigans
surrounding regime change at .ORG.

Jonathan is only chair of the committee, he doesn't speak for the rest of
us until we come up with a consensus statement. For this and other reasons,
Nat's contributions IMO have now entered the realm of trolling and should
be treated accordingly. They certainly are not contributing to any
substantive end-user focused position and in fact seem to me as
lobbyist-style diversion. We've dealt with this kind of thing before.

Sometimes the side chatter is informative, sometimes it is entertaining,
this time IMO it's neither. The rest of you can keep it going but I'm out
of this thread which seems to be heading either nowhere or in circles.
