When you signed, did you enter a reservation that took exception
to the word "space"?  The term "domain name
space" characteristically 
subsumes the underlying tree structure within the space.  See Domain
Name Space, Mockapetris, DOMAIN NAMES - CONCEPTS and FACILITIES, RFC
882.

Assuming, arguendo, that you took at least a mental reservation,
the same legal and policy arguments apply.
