You are of course free to consider the Norwegian policy that way.
Fortunately, a lot of the people who register domain names in Norway
seem to disagree with you.

That being said, the Norwegian domain name policy is undergoing change,
and will probably be somewhat liberalized (ie. more than one domain
name per organization). There will still be several safeguards to
prevent cybersquatting.
