Below I shall try to address a few of the concerns raised in writing.
You can read just the high-level notes above my signature, diving
into the corresponding detailed exposition below my signature as
you see fit. Apologies for lack of hypertext links.

Hi all,
I've added a few pull requests to the draft "Delegated credentials for TLS"
that address the proposals discussed at IETF.
Specifically:
* https://github.com/tlswg/tls-subcerts/pull/8 -- Creates a tighter binding
of the DC to the handshake parameters;
* https://github.com/tlswg
But the draft states
Values within "obsolete_RESERVED" ranges are used in previous
versions of TLS and MUST NOT be offered or negotiated by TLS 1..3
TLS 1.3 does not define use of the Brainpool curves. Any implementation that
wants to use them in TLS 1.3 is already out-of-scope of the stan

Well, I note that the text also says "or have had very little usage,"

It's mainly due to CFRG's advice, isn't it?
Calling other curves potentially unsafe or inappropriate for general use is a
bit harsh and outside the scope of TLS, isn't it?
As to using a narrow or wide set of curves, there are reputable proposals for
the latter:
ia.cr/2015/647 and ia.cr/2015/366
Hi,
I think there's been a mentality change in the TLS community that
explains this.
Back when Brainpool curves were standardized there was a "more is
better" mentality when it came to algorithms. I.e. if an algorithm is
not broken it's good to have it in TLS. Particularly all kinds of
nationalize

Dear WG members,
I am quite astonished that the brainpool curves are eventually prohibited in
TLS 1.3. Based on an earlier comment
(https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tls/current/msg17204.html), I would have
thought that the brainpool curves will be allowed in any future version,
