This is not entirely a bad idea. It does not make sense for Google to be a domain registrar when there are like 100s of of other companies doing exact same thing. Finding a good partner and providing tight integration makes so much sense. What I hate about many domain registrars is that they have terrible UI, have shady marketing techniques and they operate on low margins which means they have to really push for scale. I hope Squarespace is a good partner for Google here.
