I'm trying to fathom why .home would remain ideal for home LAN users in light of RFC 8375, which replaces the previously advised '.home' with 'home.arpa' as the default domain name for homenets, the former being known to often leak out to the root name servers. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8375 Or does RFC 8378 only apply to toasters and the like (what will they think of next)? -- "J'ai pour me guérir du jugement des autres toute la distance qui me sépare de moi."
