Understood.   The reason I responded the way I did is that this point has been raised before, and I agree that we need to be really clear about the difference between the .onion request and some random TLD domain squat attempt funneled through the IETF.   But I am really concerned that we are making a much bigger deal about this than we should, to the effect that we'll see more TLD squatting because people with legitimate special-use TLD applications see requesting an entry in the special-use registry as futile.
