1. I'm not comparing domain name availability to anything. Rather, I'm pointing out flaws in your analogy, comparing your analogy to other things, and trying to show you a wide spectrum of resource availability. 2. Domain names are not random addresses, they're identity, and thus severely constrained. Yes, if one wanted a random domain name, they have near-infinite options; but not every domain use-case is such. Not even the dominant use-case is such. Squatting on a domain name is an effective way of squatting on the online version of a real-life identity. Compared to trademark squatting, domain name squatting is trivial. Needless to say, both practices are extortionary.
