What is the problem that people is trying to solve here? is this the
correct place to solve it?

Wow; really?

The problem is "Google isn't *quite* a monopoly, yet, and we'd like to be, 
even though that's evil".

And the answer is "no, it's not".

In general: no, no one should be allowed to operate a registry for a 
public domain for "internal" use, and no one should be allowed to put an A
record on a one-element gTLD.
