A greater variety of gTLDs allow better descriptions of a site's purpose and function than the traditional gTLDs. I like them and hope that we see more in the future. Are there any downsides that I am missing?

I am currently utilizing both a .email and .io address.

What if the authoritative registry for such gTLDS give-up after seeing a low uptake? (Though I agree not all gTLDs are for commercial purposes.) I am not sure what ICANN has planned for such contingencies or if there are some rules already set.
