What would be the point of putting SVCB records in a TLD (or the root)? It

The point of putting them into a TLD would be to be able to build up a
secure private connection to the TLD nameserver, before issuing a target
domain query within the TLD.

There is less need of this in the root, provided the resolver uses
query minimalization.

This is based on my assumption that SVCB records will never be served
by the parent of the domain it is for (something not everyone in the WG
seems to have accepted as operational reality).

Your "remarkably bad idea" needs more qualifications that can be
discussed on technical and societal merit.
