	You mean that: having ccTLDs, which allow citizens, residents and
	businesses of a country to register domain names within a legislative
	and political framework that may be more favorable to them, than a gTLD,
	(where UDRP will ensure that large corporations can force you to
	relinquish your domain if they believe they own the trademark to
	it) and *possibly*, at a cheaper price -- is a vanity thing ?

	Oh my, I am so looking forward to the argumentation to support that :)
