Is there a remote possibility here that Verisign might say "yeah, we're
gonna glue this domain down to 0.0.0.0 and not allow registration"? Is
there any precedent for this? Would seem like a game of whack-a-mole that
anyone would want to avoid.

Really that would seem like the only way to ratchet up the "internet death
penalty" even further at this point, barring any major ISPs coming out and
saying they'll block it from transiting their networks. Again, more
whack-a-mole, and arguably a more serious precedent to set as Verisign
isn't the only TLD registrar.
