accepting (and agreeing with) the principle of non-interference, not responding
to this part makes sense to me.

The aforementioned principle does not apply here and given the risk of a spillover
effect, why would we not want to send a message for (I'd prefer 'dogmatic' over
'ideological') reasons?   Essence of that message being that we would expect
significant confusion among ccTLDs regarding such a move, so beyond the caveats
raised by Alejandra, we would not be able to predict a positive result.
