completely agree with your view of the pyramid, but would want to understand more what ICANN has to do with the general internet vs. its specific area of capability (domains, dns, etc.).
Putting words in Evan's mouth, it's the effect that domains and DNS have on the general interest. For example, to the extent that ICANN either has rules that encourage phishing or fails to enforce rules that would deter it, it is not acting in the public interst that its status as a non-profit requires it to do.
