i am concerned about the above implicit mischaracterization of the
opposing view, since the opposing view is mine in this case. there are
no hoops here. people will register if they want to, and people will
check the registry if they want to. so, we are not in control of what
people are doing, and we're not trying to be. this discussion is going
to proceed more efficiently if we each speak for ourselves.

so: offering someone a chance to register that a conflict exists does
not serve the purpose of advancing interoperability. that is, the
information "ONION.ALT exists, see http://whatever"; is useful, whereas
the information "ONION.ALT exists, see http://someplace and/or
http://someplace_else"; is not useful. this, to me, is what FCFS means.
