This is 1000% something I’ve thought about, if I ever got too much money… just registering .name with ICANN and having a website called its.david for example. Email hi@its.david or even like me@david as the full email address if you had a root level mx record[0]. Then of course a root level website of just david.
Would just be insanely fun to play with & ruin other developers days when I complain that their form isn’t accepting my email. And really just generally confusing everyone.
"For the newer gTLDs, like .google, ICANN's application rules specify that they must not have A or MX records (apart from temporarily the special "if you used this name internally you're about to have a problem" records before the gTLD went live)."

Maybe someday :)
