Internet journalism means you can sensationalize hypotheticals like "The IANA may fudge its own rules" and "Money talks" without having to provide a source for those claims.
And why should I be careful choosing a TLD or interpret this as a warning? The Internet isn't breaking, it's changing. All this does is fear monger in favor of one Pope of the Internet.

KILL CENTRALIZED DNS

OK poof there are now 100 name servers delegating .com. Which one does your ISP default you to? [1-100]
-
All of them, find one that responds an answer valid for my local saved key.
The DNS server is no longer an authority on its own, just your keyring matters.
-
Who issued the key?
-
The certificate authorities on my ring that I trust. For normal people that's already included in their OS or browser
-
So, an authority? It sounds like this would complicate DNSSEC by requiring the "root keys" to be stored outside the DNS itself.
-
We already have to have key rings. Centralized DNS is just a second, superfluous layer of authority (and a massive grift) on top
-
"Centralized DNS" is an oxymoron, we'll have to agree to disagree
