Not exactly, mostly I think you're missing out on history: .onion is reserved _because_ we proposed that it should be. However, we proposed 6 TLDs to be reserved, and ultimately Facebook pushed ".onion" through while all the others were rejected by our corporate overlords (or whoever runs the IETF these days). For the gory details, read the RFC reserving ".onion" carefully, as well as Kumari's RFC that resulted from the 1000-email flamewar that erupted on dnsop over our draft. The short version: some said "gnu" was trademarked (by gnu.com, not gnu.org!) and could not be reserved; some said this was not an IETF issue but an ICANN issue; some said one needed to have 1M users of the pTLD before IETF would register it (demonstrate use); others said one could not just squad on a domain name and would have to ask for the name before ever using it; some suggested we should use a different syntax (and break compatibility with all existing applications); and some seem to believe that DNS is the last name resolution protocol the Internet will ever need. Anyway, after discussing our draft for a few years, IETF approved the .onion draft (which basically was identical, except removing the reservations for other TLDs) in a matter of months. So Tor's .exit is not reserved, because Facebook doesn't need that one. So maybe we should write that the leakage issue is also a problem for ".exit", would that be better?
