I believe that the rationale-01 document uses the word "registry" for

described as a "registry", regardless of that actual administrative
arrangements or level in the tree.
[Which seems the right thing to do to me.]

No. Characters never harm. And are never "hostile" despite what
protocol-03 says. What will come next? Terrorist characters?
