It would be interesting to see such an analysis, Evan,
The problem for ICANN is that people identify with their local ccTLD in 
a way that they don't generally identify with a gTLD. Some of the more 
successful and stable new gTLDs have communities that have grown around 
them (.ORG, geo gTLDs and hobby/interest gTLDs).

A lot of ccTLD registry marketing has focused on the localised nature of 
ccTLDs and claim that they are more trustworthy than gTLDs. Most local 
advertising is going to be overwhelmingly ccTLD with a few of the legacy 
gTLDs.
