What is the benefit of doing this, in your opinion? The question is
"What registries are involved in providing the service or activity" and
IMO if we simply state that these are IN-ADDR.ARPA and IP6.ARPA, it
should be sufficient.

I understand that these registries are strictly speaking outside the
scope of the NTIA contract, but does it matter?

I am not sure this is technically correct and will also imply that there
is a stronger interdependency with the IETF than it is. Again - what is
the benefit?
