Marc,

What is the usefulness of distinct roots if all carry the same information 
about TLDs? Is it a matter of principle, or what?

If you are thinking at ".biz", for instance, I'm sure that "most people 
wouldn't even notice it" either ;>)

I'm not sure I understand.
People that point to the ICANN (just for identification purposes, I know 
ICAN does not control it) root will continue to see the DNS according to the 
ICANN root: they are not accessing the "alternate root's" .biz now, and they 
would not care not to access it in the future.
OTOH, the few people that are seeing the DNS according to any "alternate 
root" do see the "alternate root's" .biz now, and will continue to see it in 
the future regardless what ICANN will put in its root.
There's no need to burn anybody.

Regards
Roberto
