Deep packet inspection is a technical issue, rather than a "merely"
governance one. The inspection/correction system would need to have a
pretty good knowledge about the structure of the transmission, it would be
break signatures (eg on API payloads and on emails, which both are useful
applications on the system you described - emails are unexpectedly
surviving any evolution of the Internet) and it wouldn't work on
transmissions which are encrypted on a message level (encrypted documents,
emails).

Why are you against leaving the current TLDs implicitly on Earth by default?
