A question was raised about this in a recent user group meeting. When someone steals the server certificate from the real database server and sets up a MITM with that certificate, this would pass tls-server-end-point channel binding, because both the MITM and the real server have the same certificate. But with tls-unique they would have different channel binding data, so the channel binding would detect this.
