This to me was not clear and a missed reference by me. While you name
RFC9103, the text states:

DNS over TLS: indicates the support of DNS over TLS as described in
   [RFC7858 <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7858>] and
[RFC9103 <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9103>].

I should have looked more closely at the references, and I would have
realized 9103 is about DNS XFR over TLS. That document indeed explains
that XoT uses mutually authenticated TLS which provides the authentication
for the XFR streams.

My suggestion:

Current:

DNS over TLS: indicates the support of DNS over TLS as described in
   [RFC7858 <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7858>] and
[RFC9103 <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9103>].

New:

DNS Zone Transfer over TLS: indicates the support of DNS Zone Transfer over
TLS as described in [RFC9103]

The reference to RFC7858 is misleading - it only deals with stub to
recursive.

If you think stub to recursive is in scope, it might be better to use two
DHCP options as these two things
seem to be very separate protocols (that just both happen to use DNS and
TLS)

Reading 9103 made that clear to me now, but the text in the document did
not. Perhaps that can be stated more clearly ?
