I'm not sure what community you're talking about, or how you
measure it. We're getting to the point here where these kinds
of changes have major administrative impacts on a very large
scale. Asking many millions of people to provide and maintain
new contact information at multiple DNS levels is significant.
It's also not clear whether any benefits would derive.
You already have IP address contact information, and up to
three contact information field sets in the DNS realm.

I never speak for clients. Please note the personal domain.

NSI is hardly the only one involved. It's not a service,
but a significant, unjustifiable burden on and cost for millions
of people and companies.
