> Then why hasn't there been a gTLD reserved for local use?

.qm to .qz and .xa to .xz have always been implicitly reserved as TLDs that will never be globally-routable [0] [1], but these aren't exactly the most intuitive names so it's unsurprising that nobody uses them.

(".internal" as mentioned by the sibling comment [2] is the best choice these days, but its definition is somewhat recent.)
