The whole point is to build solutions on top of underlays where there can be

How is this worse than NOT doing this heuristic ? 

No difference under no attack.

What heuristic would you use under attack, and why ?

So far i do not see a difference except for deployment cases (home vs. more 
difficult / potentially more easily attacked underlays, but then again, mDNS is 
widely used within universities/schools too, sone might argue that there is not 
even a different in deployment).
