  That doesn't actually answer my question, the assumption is still there, unexplained. So we don't get a generic .dev TLD for content targeted at software developers; so what? DNS has existed for thirty years without one, yet we've managed to show content for developers somehow, and we'll continue to do so. The new gTLD program has changed nothing of relevance for us. Does it really matter if Google paid a few hundred grand to get shorter domains? The whole discussion just reminds me of children in the playground arguing over who gets to play with the red ball.
