Google is a registrar themselves... Do you mean they use someone else for their own domains?

Correct, MarkMonitor is a _huge_ business. Alphabet has had an account there for much longer than they have been a Registrar under Google name.

They're a reseller like everyone else. If I'm not mistaken they actually use eNom for customers buying domains on any of their platforms (though not for their own domains).

They're a reseller for some TLD's, and a registrar for others.

I get emails for a friend's domain that was originally registered through Google Apps (G Suite) many years ago, and I see emails with "enom" in them going back all those years.

Wasn't aware they'd finally taken the plunge. Thanks for the correction.

How exactly was that story of a man owning Google.com through Google domains for a few minutes possible, then?

He didn't own the name, he found a way to change the DNS records; while being registered at MM, google.com is still pointed to Google's own DNS servers.

A freak accident and lack of checks.
