1) Typosquatting DNS adds cost (it's harder to spam the namespace), and it forces the attacker to put down a credit card.
2) Go-style import URLs prevent you from typosquatting a large part of the path. On `example.com/hrd2spll` you can't typosquat the latter part (which would be easier to attack), only the hostname.

I have a few random projects on github that some people seem to use. I wouldn't pay for a domain name to publish those.
