There is a relation between aplha-3 codes and gTLDS. In my reading of
Applicants Guide Book Section 2.2.1.4 point 1, apha-3 codes are
considered an off limits if listed in ISO 3166-3. (That's why google
retracted some applications because they collided with his rule).
Of course, the list above is "1918-like space" but still so it doesn't
matter that much;. However, one might want to be consistent in
threating 1918-like thingies.
