The document contains the text:

  "DoT, for example, would normally contain no client identifiers above
   the TLS layer and a resolver would see only a stream of DNS query
   payloads originating within one or more connections from a client IP
   address.  Whereas if DoH clients commonly include several headers in
   a DNS message'

Doesn't this just mean "if the DoT client is a good implementation, and the
DoH client is not..." ?

I think the Section 8.2 of RFC8484 states this problem better. Why do we
need this section?

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8484#section-8.2

I didn't mention PGP--I was talking about misrouting (BGP). I disagree that
they are out of scope. Most of the larger TLS use cases rely on PKI.
