I agree with this approach.

IMO it’s reasonable for the WG to produce an RFC which says “If you need a TLD for private use, pick from the two letter codes that ISO 3166 MA says they’ll never allocate. Bear in mind if they later change their mind, you’ll be on your own and could well be in a world of pain. Have a nice day.”.
