Your examples only indicate that traffic is lost, not that there will be no significant traffic nor that the IDN's can't be the primary term, it doesn't serve to proof anything but the fact that businesses need to acquire more names to get the same of amount of type-ins for the keyword. It will diminish the value of equivalent non-idn's which is probably the most important reason for conventional ascii-investors to moan and groan about idn's.
I am positive that constructions like oe -> ö will become a thing of the past, unlike some non-latin languages most of the 'special' characters can be typed easily and the user doesn't have to switch keyboard layout (like with chinese characters). These constructions like "oe" are sensible only when the user cannot input the correct characters.
Besides, the German IDN market is as strong as the non-idn market, albeit there are less German IDN sales then pure ascii sales simply because most german words do not contain these diacritic marks.
Wouldn't he be more worried if he didn't have avião.com OR aviao.com ?
What's too much traffic ? Too much for what, to pay the reg-fee ?
You have to consider that avião.com is in his possession because it was available and because aviao.com was taken, avião.com was most likely acquired at reg-fee, so losing traffic to aviao.com is not an issue.
It is most like aviao.com which might consider buying avião.com instead of the other way around, that's the point, most of the scooped up IDN's are meant for speculation or mini-sites. It is the established order which must consider buying IDN's after which they would own both the idn and the ascii version. This already confirms the value of idn's hypothetically since ascii investors need to acquire idn's to maintain the value of their portfolio.
I just do it for the money
