TLS 1.3 actually takes quite a bit of stuff from OPTLS (as you can see in
the most
recent OPTLS paper). To a great extent, the differences
are due to explicit WG decisions, specifically the following two decisions;

- Not to have an offline-signed DH credential
- To require signing on every public-key-based handshake.

IIRC there was pretty strong consensus for both these decisions, but if
there is
a lot of feeling to the contrary, presumably we could revisit these.
