A common case of name collision is driven by the “DNS search path”,
e.g., if you have a “search path” of “bar.com;foo.bar.com” and you
type “telnet baz”, _some_ resolver libraries will try to resolve
“baz.bar.com”, if that

No, ICANN doesn't ban anything for the ccTLDs.

The latter would seem to be avoidable by making sure that *DNS resolution
of bare TLDs always returns NXDOMAIN*.
Is that a requirement for a TLD?
No. In fact, a TLD lookup that returned NXDOMAIN would be utterly
broken since that would mean the TLD had no SOA, no NS, and no
subdomains. Perhaps

That was the underlying point here; I thought that was pretty clear.
But that's not what NXDOMAIN means. :) You get an NXDOMAIN response
IMHO, since ICANN has created the situation, the ball is in ICANN’s court to
say how this works without disrupting name services. Their ill-informed hipshot
is not our emergency.
