Two things:

1.  The issue before us is not merely a TLD or near-TLD one.  If we
work as though it is, then we're not doing our jobs.

2.  Notwithstanding the above, there are some delegation relationships
that are less fraught than others.  There are all sorts of prickly
layer-9+ issues implicit in talking about a contract between a private
US corporation and the sovereign power of foreign nations, and I think
we maybe want to avoid exploring that warren.
