Please prove that Inclusive Namespace roots put name resolution at risk.

You did it yourself, a few paragraphs later...

Please post a link or give an example. If you mean .BIZ, I would agree, it was
hijacked, but by ICANN, not by any Inclusive Roots. It belonged to AtlanticRoot
and ICANN deliberatly created a collision. Collisions cause instability and the
biggest one was caused by ICANN.

So AtlanticRoot created a .BIZ, and (presumably) guaranteed to include everything
ICANN had - and then ICANN created a conflicting .BIZ, and resolution of .BIZ
named was placed at risk.

As you were saying?
