Making each host role have it's own distinct name would definitely be a
gain from a clarity perspective but making those distinctions based
solely on the TLD that is being used seems like it'd actually make
things somewhat more confusing.

Instead why not use subdomains below example.com that explicitly
indicate what their role is, e.g. {server,client,validation}.exmaple.com?
