> What's so dangerous about it?

Implying lack of trust in `co.uk`

Implying `co.uk` may suffer the same fate at `.name`

Complete FUD.

You're absolutely right, when it's Nominet's actions that actually inspire a lack of trust in .co.uk, given they've been a bit of a hot mess since the early 2010's-ish.

;)

(Edit: although I should add that I'm hopeful that things have improved there over the last few years).

		> given they've been a bit of a hot mess since the early 2010's-ish No. Oversimplified summary: There was a period around 2010 when the management at the time wanted to follow a more commercial route with various unrelated "investments". Nominet members made it impeccably clear in a very loud manner to management that it would not be tolerated. Management insisted on a vote which they inevitably lost. Management departed. TL;DR Don't piss off Nominet members
