Why not? There's a central registry of MIME types. And there's a central registry of TCP/UDP port number assignments.

For cases where assigning names to numbers is uncontroversial, central authorities don't cause any problems. _______________________________________________ bitcoin-dev mailing list bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev
