I said this about 7 months ago and I still agree that there should be
no mandatory transport layer encryption as this should be provided
outside of the scope of this draft.

Concern 1: Mandatory TLS/DTLS Inappropriate in some Contexts
I’ve raised this issue before, but I’m hoping that now that
people have had a bit more time to think about all the use cases,
see what it means in the real world, etc., there might be a bit mo

kes sense in some cases, but if we are expecting RELOAD to be reus
able, it is clear to me that it does not make sense in all cases.
It was familiar
to the editors, and well understood, so it made sense as a proposal,
but I disagree with it being the mandatory/only solution.
I fully agree with David that making (D)TLS mandatory is not a good
idea, especially concerning re-usability of the protocol in scenarios
where you already have similar security features provided by the
underlying system.
Cheers,
Ari
