I'd say the goal is to make the DNS *possible* to use for people who
don't know about the restrictions on CNAMEs.

I concede that ANAME perhaps makes that easier than HTTP does, but it does so at the expense of significant complexity in authority servers by still requiring A and AAAA lookups to be somehow "magic", and doesn't fix the architectural problem of lack of a service identifier.

My long-term goal would be to never have an A or AAAA record appear in the DNS other than at the owner name of an actual hostname.
