Sure but as more than one engineer whose been using this for several years asks “why should I change? This works now and you’re just cramping engineering velocity. “ And saying “it’s not standard” doesn’t hold water. Sure there are migration issues but if folks stay in their vendor ecosystem....

Bonjour uses SRV extensively. I forgot about AD. Those are set up by admins right? Doesn’t Bonjour create those records behind the scenes? People are saying a domain owner is going to log into godaddy and configure a SRV record.
