 Personally, I do know the addresses I visit more often and, anyway, recognition is easier than recall.

 I used an impartial bot to analyze the note above for propagandistic content.  See table below.

While there’s a good point about the increase in TLDs, global names clearly have utility, as shown by the fact that people are willing to pay for them. A system that provides a level playing field and avoids large price increases (like those seen with ENS) would be ideal.

One possible approach is to let users choose their short names, with a tie-breaking method if multiple users want the same name. Bitcoin's UTXO model could be well-suited for this purpose, though Namecoin faced challenges with implementation.

 Why does the judgment of "strength" made by a bot matter in any way whatsoever?

 Appreciate the perspective! The strength ratings are meant as a guide to highlight key points in the analysis, but they're not absolute. The goal is simply to give structure to the insights, which anyone can interpret as they see fit.
