AFAIK, two letter TLDs are all implicitly reserved since any of them might
pop up in ISO 3166 in the future. I'm not enough of an ICANNologist to
point to where this is established (to my surprise, it is not established
by RFC 1591).

LO is currently unassigned in ISO 3166, but of course that could change
as a result of some future geopolitical event.

So it would be really foolish of the IETF to consider .lo at all.
