Syslog-over-UDP is not the mandatory-to-implement or recommended transport for in RFC 5424, due to both congestion control and security reasons. Syslog-over-DTLS-over-UDP would have the same challenges in congestion control, so probably it wouldn't be the mandatory-to-implement or recommended transport either. But that doesn't prevent it from being published as RFC.
