Does the fact that .io is a ccTLD (despite not actually being used primarily for internal BIOT purposes) offer any counterpoint to that argument?

No, it’s still trademark infringement. Especially since it relates to the same product. It would be different if they were unrelated but this is about as bad as infringement and brand confusion can get. Any competent legal OR marketing team would have sent them a C&D ages ago.
