I don't understand the basis of this.  I've read the article and
it talks about registrants "owning" domain names (they don't).

Perhaps the article should talk about "sub-leasing" a domain name,
but then what's the point of that?

It looks like an article written by a lawyer who doesn't know how
DNS registration systems work and is trying to solve a problem
that doesn't exist (or is extremely rare) in the DNS space by
a flawed analogy with real estate.

Pointless.
