Hi Dave

You logic never makes sense.  IF domain names MUST be unique then you CANNOT
have two domain names with the same extension like crocker.biz.

Which means that alternate TLDs either (a) don't exist or (b) are not a problem.

IF domain name assignment MUST have a mechanism for ensuring uniqueness then one
MUST already exist (that's if domain names MUST be unique in the first place).

Of course, if there is such a mechanism it is singularly ineffective.
