It got renewed thanks to the diligent work of everyone who was trying to get it sorted out for the past few months, rather than any kind of miracle.

Nobody will need an X.org domain by 2025: this will probably be last time.

Ad-hoc allocation of tasks and resources makes sense for small projects, but for something as valuable as a single-letter domain...?

Now, after 10 years, it might be a good idea to spend a bit more thought on the matter and try the less obvious.

I'd still love to know why one single member was given total control of such an asset in the first place, apparently with no obligation to maintain it.
Ad-hoc handing out of responsibilites isn't unusual in small projects, but for something as valuable as a single-letter domain...?

Maybe it's within their agreement and legal framework to renew somebody else's domain.
What I'm worried about is when Leon may legally die (whether he's actually dead or not), he may not have anything set up to transfer the domain.

My guess is that Leon showed some mercy and decided not to let it expire.
