Oh, and what "non-objective" criteria would those be?
The ones in the special-names RFC, which the author and the working
group apparently considered sufficient. Which, I am afraid, contradicts
the point you were making about how we can have incomplete "objective"
criteria that will save time.
Consider this: in order for .onion to get a 6761 allocation, it has to
be the case that there are >O(100k) users. That is the "objective"
measurement I would give for your question. But there are >O(100k)
users _now_, long after the point when .onion should have gotten a
special-use allocation. So this objective criterion actually would
have refused .onion an allocation when it should have happened. Which
lands us back in the subjective criteria, which was my point.
