So what ?

For me, a charter is a general guideline for a TLD, no more. If you don't want any kind of guideline, you don't have to impose a charter, but just a "description" of the TLD. I think we didn't really understood the real meaning of what you call a charter. So, for us, we can keep only the description, the general purpose of the TLD and go forward.
