Upgrading the user to https is only one use case for the HTTPS resource record. In fact it is not the required behaviour as all of my HTTPS RR testing so far has been with http as I didn’t want to get certificates for the 10+ domains with different behaviour I created. Works fine with the current clients (iOS 14/MacOS 11). It also solves the CNAME at the APEX problem and allows more options for transport before the initial setup of the connection.

I also think that any list hardcoded in browser/OS deployments is a bad idea for a long term solution (that include auto upgrades of DoH servers ;-) and it looks like STS has already shown that. DNS being an distributed mechanism is far better suited as it does not require an update of the end device.

Just my .02 cents as a DNS guy ;-).

So long
