You’re misquoting me and arguing against a point I didn’t make. There was no 
one saying we don’t need DHCP. There was a general agreement that DHCP should 
not be extended.

The DHC working group never completed the work for DHCP authentication. It’s 
not trustworthy enough in its current form to add more things to it.

Again, some better understanding of DoH deployment would help. I don’t know if 
it’s generally accepted that DoH will replace UDP/53 or DoT in the stub 
resolver or DoH will just end up in the browsers as a way to speed up web 
pages. But if DoH stays in the browser and DoT is tried and used on all DNS 
servers, there’s not a problem to solve.
