It's not really about it being "great" :-)

It's REQUIRED by TLS1.3, and in order for multi-tenant to work, it is a MUST.

When I say "multi-tenant", I mean any cloud provider that has, for instance,
"hardware" TLS offload.

It's not a significant amount of work.

The other bit is that Registrars MUST IGNORE SNI when accepting Pledge
connections.    Pledges ought to not send it, since they don't really know
what to put.
(Is that a SHOULD NOT, or a MUST NOT, or what, I am not sure. The requirement
is on the receiver to ignore it)

That's a second errata.
