Yes.  +1 for Marks point.

The deployment of NSEC3-signed toplevel domains is a giant hash
collision test of typo dictionaries.  What does the registry do when
someone registers a new domain name that has a hash-collision (resign
with a new salt, and also keep that 2-second update guarantee? - I would
suggest some weasel words in agreements).

But I agree more pertinent to choice is the increased CPU demand and
larger packets when using NSEC3.  And opt-out, obfuscation desiderata.
