I don't believe that existing crypto binding is adequate for NEA's needs
as discussed in draft-hartman-emu-mutual-crypto-binding.

Unfortunately, though, I'm not sure that tls-unique helps enough  here. If
the outer method actually does provide server authentication as
deployed, then tls-unique is adequate.  TLS-unique is preferable to
crypto-binding because it allows you to determine whether you're talking
about the right tunnel in the scope of the inner method--prior to doing
the NEA assessment--rather than in the scope of the outer method. (Also,
I'd assume this method does not generate a particularly useful key, so
crypto binding is not that helpful)

However, if you're depending on something other than the outer method
for server authentication, then TLS-unique is not good enough.
