I think that is entirely reasonable.  TLS 1.2 relies on contributory
behaviour.  25519 doesn't provide that unless you do some extra
checking that we know many implementations don't do.

I'd be OK with either requiring session hash, some checking of values,
or both.  Otherwise we create a situation where the shared secret can
be forced by an attacker.
