Why is it not discourse.COM?

Hi,

The domain discourse.com is owned by CDCK, and yet, is not chosen for anything. .com is a universally accepted TLD for businesses and companies, why was .org chosen over it?

The only use discourse.com serves is being a re-direct for discourse.org. Would love to hear if there’s a story/answer behind this.

No idea what category this would fall under so I just left it under site feedback. Maybe the community category?
