Why does it need to be a TLD (see all the discussions here about
Special Use Domain Names, .alt, .alt.arpa, etc)? Why not
lan.mycompany.com?

As I said before, and explained, you're wrong here, since you don't
take merging and acquisition into account.

With a subdomain of your Second Level Domain, no need for WHOIS (or
RDAP).

But I agree that ICANN rules for the .corp TLDs are stupid. If
McDonald's register .MCDONALDS, why do they need delegation and public
social info for the SLD?
