Yeah, I've mentioned the same sort of thing in the past too, when I first
learned
of TLS Grease (RFC 8701).

Speaking from experience though, and despite the efforts of EDNS flag day,
dropping the responses without fallback still may be too high a bar :(

We had to disable Cookies when we upgraded to a post EDNS flag day BIND
implementation because of hue and cry from some large customers still
running
broken DNS implementations :( (I mentioned more details on the
dns-operations
list at that time).

Shumon.
