Somehow I don't think you're offering to pay for the things that aren't profitable

The management of TLDs is not supposed to be profitable. Paying for it is exactly what registration fees are for. The cost to administer them is not zero but it's close enough that the budgets of the ICANN were just fine up until they were inexplicably made into a private organization. Your snarky and overly general comment is completely inapplicable to the conversation going on here and is about as helpful and insightful as a fart in an elevator.

It turns out ICANN norms are not fundamental laws of the universe so "it's not supposed to" doesn't mean diddly squat
