Are short .PAY names always available when choosing trust.pay?

How does sooner.dot fit into an overall brand-protection policy?
Owning sooner.dot should anchor a policy that also covers trademark recording in the TMCH, monitoring, customer communication, and a dispute plan. The exact sooner.dot payment name is the highest-priority asset because of .PAY's payment implication. https://domain.pay/
