Well, google.com assigned semantics to the local-part, which they are allowed, even supposed, to do.

My point is that the RFC doesn't say they "don't matter", it says they don't have to matter. For Netflix to assume they don't matter would be in violation of the RFC (it would be assigning semantics to the local-part).
