* IDNs present more danger than wildcards,

* wildcards present more danger than IDNs,

* they are approximately the same level of danger,
and trying to separate them out is not efficacious
at this level of discussion?

Anything which can be misused in such a way should be effectively prevented by policy.

We see one, and not the other.


The one which is isn't listed (IDN) requires another policy decision concerning what CAs should do in order to prevent occurrences such as PAYPA1.COM, MICR0S0FT.COM, PayPaI.com and similar. Only then it's reasonable to limit IDNs on the same basis.
