Just  a few points in relation to your email:

Registrars did not pay ICANN for new TLDS - registries / new TLD applicants did. While some of the new TLDs are backed by companies that also happen to own registrars please do not conflate the two.

The 2013 RAA has quite a large section devoted to registrars' responsibilities with respect to their resellers. See section 3.12 for example: 
https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/approved-with-specs-2013-09-17-en

The domains referenced in Kevin's article were "suspended" not "deleted"

Regards

Michele
