> It's great in german - 3 syllables for 3 letters, but english/french, it's NINE syllables for 3 letters.

Kind of absurd to use multiple syllables for a single letter if you think about it.

> I always thought it should have been web.domain.org.

It should have just been "domain.org" - the web part is already specified in the protocol. And if you are concerned about domains only having a single IP that could have been (and for many protocols has been) solved with SRV records.
