Can I get sex.edu.au for performing certain educational activities?
I think it would be an excellent name for a porn site.

Why is your client so keen to get an edu.au domain? What advantages do
they perceive in being a holder of edu.au (conversely, what disadvantage
do they perceive if their domain name ended in .com or anything else)?
Now to put the point on the stick: you advocate open slather for edu.au;
surely this will remove any perceived advantages in being part of that
namespace.

It appears they feel they've been cast out from the exclusive edu.au club.
When you open the club so anybody can join, how attractive will membership
be?
