I doubt they'll buy .local.

But generally speaking a subdomain on a domain you really own seems like a better idea.

I guarantee you that ICANN will never allocate .local because the risk of collision is too high. They've already made that determination for .corp, .mail, and .home: https://www.icann.org/resources/board-material/resolutions-2...

.home is used more than .dev? I find that hard to believe.

I’ve literally never ever seen any .home until now.

It's commonly used by routers.
