There is speculation that this is done to minimize 'monopoly' accusations as 
they re-implement "SiteFinder" and nix NXDOMAIN again.

Read some "True Evil (tm)" here:
http://verisign.com/corporate/news/2003/pr_20031007b.html?sl=070804

They have a schlub testifying how great it is that there is something to 
prevent "project-stopping 404-errors".  How does SiteFinder even relate to 
404's?  404 is a server response indicating a non-existant document specified 
by the URI. It has to be returned by a server that was correctly resolved.

There is little doubt as to why the firm which cooked these studies up for VS 
is called "Markitecture".
