SU is exceptionally reserved in 3316-1. I cannot find any reference for LL, and t does not seem to be delegated in the ICANN or OpenNIC roots; what is it?

I had always believed that the RFCs required such a policy. I support
adopting a "all two-letter TLDs are reserved for ccTLDs" policy, with
provisions that "country-like entities" may also be considered and that
previously assigned country codes may remain valid. (This proviso
allows for .ll and .su to meet the criteria, for example.)
