You're picking nits Paul. AFAIK you're right. ICANN might not have literally 
said "never". However it has said these strings will not be considered for 
delegation until the security and stability concerns around them have been 
satisfactorily addressed*. Which pretty much means they'll never get delegated.

Paraphrasing what was said should be good enough for the thread here. The key 
point is ICANN put .home, .corp, and .mail on some sort of "do not delegate" 
list and that action didn't involve the IANA SUDN registry. Quibbling over the 
detail is unhelpful.
