I think there's some overlap here, if the intent of the 'original_transport' field is to allow a server to make policy decisions (e.g. truncation, RRL etc) based on that value. However, my XPF co-authors and I think that a simple transport protocol value is no longer sufficient for this. In practise the servers don't care about the *actual* transport, but instead care about the meta-properties of that transport, i.e. "is it unspoofable", "does it support large packets", "is it encrypted" ? In "old" DNS the use of a single flag indicating "udp" or "tcp" was an adequate proxy for those meta-properties, but now with DNS-over-TLS, Cookies, etc, it won't do.
