A city name is inherited authority. It doesn't need to be built, explained, or defended — it already means something to millions of people before your first visitor arrives. That's the opposite of most domains, which have to earn trust one visit at a time.
sheffield.co.uk is short, unambiguous, and impossible to confuse with anything else. It's the address a tourism board, a business park, an urban regeneration/development project, or any major Sheffield organisation would choose first — if it were available. It rarely is.

A much smaller city with no global sporting, industrial, or cultural weight behind it. This is closer to a floor than a fair comparison for Sheffield.
Liverpool's global recognition rests on one thing: the Beatles. Sheffield's comes from steel, snooker, two major football clubs, and two research universities — a broader, more durable base of recognition, at comparable size and stature.
