Good for you! You are one up on the CBL, then, who have had some false
positives that I personally know of; nice to see you are entirely, 100% free
of error.
And also nice to see you bucking conventional wisdom from DNSBL operators on
what constitutes a dead domain. I¹m with you. Fly in the face of experience,
strike out in wildly new directions.

Ok seriously, why take a chance? There tends to be coherence between the OED
and American Heritage in terms of definitions. Why try to start a new one
for dead domain?
I have different technologies and capabilities than most other DNSBL
operators. And I do have a goal of !00% accuracy although that is
difficult to attain.
