I missed .lan, .corp and .mail were also submitted. Corp and mail were originally rejected by ICANN in 2012 as thought too dangerous. Somehow 2026 is safer?
.pdf and .php are technically backup choices, but still an absurd submissions. As is .csr and .bin.
The inherent trust words have their own issues: .login .auth .account .admin .official .verified. I don't see how these are anything but a ransom against organizations to preempt squatting.
