9. Which additional benefits would each suggestion bring?

Please respond in a similar manner to the instructions in question 8 about the suggestions and to which groups that might see some benefit from them.

Those suggestions:
A) eliminating the AGP so that domain registration fees are non-refundable between registry and registrar;
B) making the ICANN annual transaction fee (currently 0.20 USD per year) apply to names deleted during the AGP, or to a significant portion of them;
C) imposing registry ‘excess deletion fees’ charged to registrars for disproportionate deletes (for example in .org, PIR registry charges 0.05 USD per deleted domain if more than 90% of domains are deleted in a given time period).
