Sure.  I'd oppose the registration of "classic" for various
reasons related to "generic" variants:  Folks could try to
use it anywhere, not only with the registered prefix "be".

They could also try to register it for completely different
purposes and other prefixes, resulting in a very convoluted
subtag record (multiple descriptions and multiple comments 
depending on the prefix).

OTOH for "tarask" collisions with other purposes are unlikely.
