Don't forget two (more) things:

- We can not allow new registrar-registrant issues increase trouble for the 
registrant to transfer a domain from one registrar to another.

- A registrant is doing business with one or more registrars, and a registrar 
make business with one or more registries (for the same registrant). We do not 
need more diversity between registries and registrars, we need less. The more 
similar rules the registries have, the easier it is for the registrant to 
register their favourite label in more than one TLD. And the more freedom (and 
difference) in the interface between registry and registrar (the "e" in "epp"), 
the more complicated it is for the registrar to explain and implement the 
differences to and on behalf of the registrant. It is already too hard I think. 
Registries view is that they have many registrants. In the real world, a 
registrant use multiple registries.
