I understand the initial design of ccTLDs but can we just admit it's mostly a failure? People use them as vanity URLs and there is little to no consistency in how they are used. .io, .ai and .tv are good examples. Then you have .ly where the local warlord can decide to ban your domain for no reasons. At least .gov, .edu, .com and .org are somewhat consistent.
