The draft assumes that both the recursive resolver and the stub resolver
must be updated to support this. IMO it is safe to go one step further and
just also assume that both updated resolvers also support DoT, and the
concerned stub resolver should then use it to connect to a resolver if the
latter is nowhere to be found in RFC 6890.

Otherwise you would probably have to assume that all the middleboxes are
also updated to support sudden JSON in the RESINFO responses without simply
dropping it as e.g. likely malware-ish, or just suspicious. And then those
middleboxes would also probably want to take part in the game which would
also mess things up.
