Just a historical note here: the acceptance signal was designed this way so
that the client has an explicit signal of whether the server used the inner
ClientHello (CH) or the outer CH. Further, we decided that the signal
shouldn't be an extension due to the risk of middleboxes doing something
weird with it. We call this "sticking out". See
https://github.com/tlswg/draft-ietf-tls-esni/issues/274 for the initial(?)
discussion.


This idea was derived from my attempt to implement encrypted TLS SNI Proxy.

Your suggestion reminds me of Option (2) in that issue. See Nick's point
here:

However, see David's comment here:
