However, there is nothing *technological* in the DNS which says
that you can't start a new public registry and hand out domain
names to different organizations under a given DNS domain name

Indeed and actually several people do it (the Public Suffix List will
point to many examples such as eu.org, uk.com, ynh.fr, etc).

Not to mention registries which are not public but still registries
(big organisations delegating subdomains to some departments).
