As I have said in a previous post: HOW DO YOU RECKON THIS IS SO?

Clear the database, and within hours you will have far more domains registered to far fewer people than are currently evidenced in IOD's database, which has, I believe, thousands of registrants.

<<<< However, I am against ANY preregistrations, whether they come from IOD, Namespace, CORE, or any other entity. >>>>>

So, what do you think IANA authorized when they said, "Take registrations." You have yet to answer this simple question.

WHAT was IANA approving?! A fiasco that would hurt innocent people because they were pawns in an elaborate testing system?!!

If that was the case, they should have demanded that IOD say, "Just a simulation, folks. Your registrations are free and invalid!"
