it's also mildly humorous that they used to quite religiously endorse .local, in some documents even categorizing use of the same domain name on an internal and external network as a "security risk".

Keep in mind that this was before ubiquitous, always-on TCP/IP was the norm. It was coming, but we weren't there yet and Microsoft was still catching up.

I still think that a reserved-for-local-LAN-TLD use might not be a bad idea, similar to how we have private network IP addresses for cases where there is internal resistance to using a real domain.
