As you may know I think that probing in DNS is a bad idea, but even then I’m 
not sure what RFC9539 has to do with it when it comes to this document which 
focuses on the relationship between network protocol families and DNS. All 
currently know current and future transports for DNS (some of which are called 
out in RFC9539) rely on either UDP (Do53, DoQ, DoH3) or TCP (Do53, DoT, DoH2) 
as lower level transports so I don’t think there is a reason to call them out 
as the network problems will be the same.

So long
