From my perspective, I'm less concerned with which set of answers is 
more correct than the other's, rather - I'm more interested in learning 
why the entire Internet community should embroil itself in a debate over 
which 26 companies will acquire rights to a single letter .com name.
It seems such a waste of energy to me that we're going down this road at 
a time when other higher priority issues such as IDNs are just starting 
to get traction after having languished for so many years. I mean, we've 
launched quite a few TLDs over the last few years - I haven't heard of 
any great outcry about the default reserved names rules.
