Should Bitcoin own the .bitcoin TLD it could be very useful and if consensus agreed how would you make it so?

No, it would require a centralised authority to 'own it', and thus a shit show.

To add, we have namecoin. Which I thought was novel, but it didn't get enough legs.

That's like asking if HTTP should own the .web TLD.
Bitcoin is a protocol, not a person or organization.

I think he's asking exactly about being intergrated into the protocol and not about an institution group or foundation or company.
Something like was namecoin in 2013.
