On the other hand, if people want to standardize some mechanism for a policy you find regrettable, I find it hard to believe that the right answer is "prevent that standard" rather than "don't subject yourself to that policy". The latter is easily achieved by refusing to do business with registries that implement a policy you don't like. The approach that seems to be being pursued here is to try to prevent standardization of the mechanism because of a disagreement about the policy. I think that is generally bad for interoperability.
