What do you mean with "mixing scripts and domain bundling" ?
Mixing a Cyrillic "c" in a latin alphabet will very hard for humans to
distinguish from a Latin "c", so this must be disallowed, or at the
very least end up at the same Registrant.
For domain bundling, see https://cira.ca/assets/Documents/Legal/IDN/faq.pdf
It means that since I have registered "nohat.ca", no one but me can
register "nohâts.ca". These names come in a "bundle" to the same
Registrant only.
