Rather you or myself like it or not, given the existence of a player that has the capital to make this idea go, the market now has an opportunity to decide for itself.Unfortunately, "the market" tends to consist in large majority of 1) users, and 2) management. And we all know how bright those two particular segments of the population tend to be.
Well, those are the people defining your paycheck, sure you want to write them off so quickly?
If, as a group, the NANOG readership decides to take a single position on anything (ha!), then we could very likely effectively determine in which direction "the market" will go. After all, if _nobody's_ customers can access new.net's non-sanctioned gTLDs, they can't very well go to another provider for such access, and new.net will die the quick death that it deserves.
You might want to take a long, careful, hard look at who has been doing the sanctioning and how they've been making those decisions before jumping on the bandwagon. Just a friendly suggestion.
