Perhaps, but for reference here is the relevant section of the DoH spec:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8484#section-5.2

   HTTP/2 [RFC7540] is the minimum RECOMMENDED version of HTTP for use
   with DoH.

   The messages in classic UDP-based DNS [RFC1035] are inherently
   unordered and have low overhead.  A competitive HTTP transport needs
   to support reordering, parallelism, priority, and header compression
   to achieve similar performance.  Those features were introduced to
   HTTP in HTTP/2 [RFC7540].  Earlier versions of HTTP are capable of
   conveying the semantic requirements of DoH but may result in very
   poor performance.

That ISC has chosen to follow the minimum HTTP version as recommended
by the RFC is solid ground on which to be standing.
