I'm not going to comment this, but maybe the following anecdote will make you feel better. I originally wanted to use ns.ch for the ch name servers. This was turned down internally because it would violate our "two-letter second level domain rule", which, I'm sure you know, makes these domains unavailable for registration with the exception of the "Kantonskürzel", which are assigned to the proper authorities.
So the domain ns.ch is kept available in case the cantons of northern switzerland ever fusion into one big one. Very clever, reveals a lot of foresight!
