This isn't true. No one is required by law to register their trademark as
a domain name. 

So at best a new TLD is something like a license to print money for
the registrar.

Ok. What's wrong with that?  If sponsoring organizations are willing to 
pay, they should be sold what they want.  Sounds like you are against 
commercialization.

So far, I still haven't heard a _technical_ reason against these TLD's.
