It's not clear whether they're actually talking about domains or subdomains there, which is a worrying sign from a potential registrar.

Any domain that isn't one of the Top Level Domains is also a subdomain.

Isn't the actual top level domain an empty one after TLD? Looking like «.com.» with trailing dot
