This is the "you didn't follow process" argument.   But they couldn't have followed process—there was no realistic process for allocating a special-use TLD before 6761 was published.   So this amounts to an emotional appeal, which isn't much of a justification for the change you are demanding of them.

I absolutely get why you are saying this.   It's a pretty good emotional appeal.   But we shouldn't act on it, because that's all it is.   We have a process, and they are following it.   We should see it through.
