Kent will call this "the tyranny of the majority".

BTW, Kent I am still waiting for your rationale for having a planned TLD
space, vs. a TLD space driven by freedom of enterprise (i.e. real
competition).
I do not think Domain name registrants are interested in a "non-profit"
planning authority if this means enforcement of overly restrictive registry
policies against them.
What benefit would registrants have from a planned TLD space?
