Just on this one thing...

I don't accept that is the correct goal. That form of
argument is what lead to us standardising the HTTP
Forwarded header field, which IMO was a disimprovement.
(An argument I lost in the end in that case [1], but
'twas close, and back in 2012 so might go the other
way today;-)

I would argue that the correct goal is to make things
better whenever possible, with that being especially
important for protocols like (D)TLS on which many
other things depend.

I do agree that any scheme developed would need to
meet the state management requirements of servers.
I'm not convinced those requirements call for a new
super-cookie though:-)
