That feels like treating the wrong part of the problem chain. Loss of a
phone number can also cause significant business disruption. Should we
charge more for those as well?

This also feels like treating the wrong part of the problem chain. People
who make car bumpers shouldn't design them to shatter like glass and then
charge you ever-increasing prices to insure and replace them. (The reason
why they do is left as an exercise for the reader.)

Viktor's analogy to ACME is, by contrast, directly addressing the right
parts of the problem chain. If domains are important, managing and renewing
them should align with that importance.
