There is a major semantic difference in the NAPTR/URI RDATA and how/where it is handled, which is at the HTTP application layer (i.e. 3xx rewriting). This differs from the other 4 RRTYPEs, where only the A/AAAA values are sought by the client (i.e. at the transport layer). It boils down to what is in the browser bar/certificate, and which meaning of "canonical" is desired (maybe "correct" isn't the right term in this case). Given that this is something that we're trying to use to replace CNAME, the smallest degree of semantic change is probably likely to be the least contentious. IMHO, those two are pretty much out of scope, at least for this discussion. (I don't see a problem advocating for their use, but those are existing types, and nothing stops anyone from using them.) No offense intended. Brian
