It seems to me that this draft has exactly the same problem as every
other "resolver discovery" proposal: it gives complete power to the
access network to indicate the resolver to use. If you use DoH/DoT, it
is because you don't trust the access network. Relying on it to
indicate a DoH/DoT resolver is pointless.

For instance, if your access provider has a lying resolver and you
want to escape it with DoH/DoT access to an external resolver, I don't
see how this draft helps you.
