## Rationale | ||
|
||
### Separator Choice | ||
#### Using @ vs : for the separator | ||
|
||
The colon (`:`) may be a reasonable choice for separator because it is not an allowed character in ENS names, it is familiar (eg. IPv6), and isn't as overloaded as the `@` symbol. | ||
|
||
#### Alternative: `@` | ||
|
||
The `@` symbol may be a reasonable choice as it is arguably more human-readable, is already a common choice for addresses, and finds use in email and several federated communication protocols. The English reading (foo-**AT**-example-DOT-com) is natural and implies a hierarchy between the left and the right components. | ||
