the Algorithm section of https://publicsuffix.org/list/ contains this step: 7. The registered or registrable domain is the public suffix plus one additional label.
..but "registered domain" and "registrable domain" are not defined.
The registered (or registrable) domain is the public suffix plus one additional label, where:
A registered domain is a domain that is registered, which is a process defined within the domain name system related to IANA functions, ICANN, and domain name registries.
A registrable domain is a formally valid domain name that can be registered at a registry, i.e., it is not presently registered.
Perhaps the above definitions (or refinements thereof) could be added to https://publicsuffix.org/list/ ? various folks are using the term "registrable domain" in various specs where they likely mean "registered domain" (but the original text of step 7 made it easier to latch onto the term "registrable domain" by default).
