I chose my words carefully, and I stand by them.

I did not say that the DLV has no value, and I specifically mentioned that there are circumstances when it is valuable and should be used. You clearly have a different view, which is fine.

When it comes to gTLDs, I completely reject the notion that users cannot change registrars. It can be hard, no doubt, but it's a cost/benefit analysis. If the benefit of DNSSEC outweighs the difficulty of moving, then it's worth it. If not, it's not. The fact that it's hard doesn't mean it's impossible.

That said, I do recognize that there are situations where a chain of trust to the root is not possible (such as some reverse zones). Again, this becomes a cost/benefit analysis. For reverse zones if DNSSEC is important it may be worth the effort of changing providers, or even getting a PI assignment. For TLDs where DNSSEC is not yet available, a change may be in order. If enough people vote with their feet in this way those providers and TLDs that lose customers may reconsider their offerings.

No one said it would be easy. :)
