If you buy mydomain.broker.aero or mydomain.castle.museum or mydomain.smith.name or mydomain.cpa.pro, you are buying it directly from the ICANN contracted registry via a registrar so you are in the same position as if you buy mydomain.org. If you buy mydomain.us.com you are buying it from an ICANN contracted registry, but they don't happen to have a contract about that 2LD. The public part of the PSL also has thousands of 2nd and 3rd level ccTLD entries where you get whatever you get from the ccTLD, none of which have meaningful ICANN contracts. And as I said, the PSL is missing a lot of 2LDs sold direct by the TLD registries. It is a mess and it does not claim to be authoritative.
