i read the parent post's advice as duplicating, rather than changing - e.g., you keep the existing domain, but also the exact same app is available from those other domains.
But you're not wrong - i dont think the domain has a big effect, and personally i'd rather save $10.
That’s duplicate content and Google doesn’t like that. You can set the canonical url etc. but in the end the URLs will not make the difference between a user understanding the interface or not.
You simply use 301 redirects on the secondary domain(s).
You can also use secondary domains for landing pages. But that's probably out of pet projects' scope.
