I do not understand you. You have this way eventually expressed your 
position in response to my suggested work consideration. Thank you.

This position looks an absolute despise of your customers. You 
explain us that in a situation changing the legal context of your 
ARIN proposition (https://www.arin.net/policy/nrpm.html) you have no 
desire to invest time in considering and discussing with your staff 
and lawyers what could help/affect them. This is extremely surprising 
of yours but noted.

Another possibility is that you misunderstood me (as I suggested but 
you did not confirm). You nevertheless express that this document 
(hence the points it alludes to) raizes many questions calling for 
specific positions. Hence that the legal environment of the NTIA 
proposition needs serious further considerations where there might 
be  room for political implications. This is something we agree.

The difference however between you and me, is that you have an 
existing legally committed business proposition with customers, while 
I oppose its framework and therefore have none, but need one for my 
fellows from the multitude. This means that your operations are 
directly affected, mine far less.

However, your position for disregarding any possible legal 
implication means that you are confident that the NTIA move will not 
actually call for a change in your terms and condtions and that it 
will just permit an US judge to ask Interpol to send me to jail, or 
ICANN to block my DNS, if I find an alternative to your proposition that works.

This is certainly a precious information that I will not be alone to note.
Best.
