I don't feel too strongly about the tls version binding and I'd be fine with 
removing it to favor operational simplification.

I don't think that the problem here is a code problem.  It's an operational one.

In many ways, the decision to use TLS 1.3 over TLS 1.2 is one that can be made 
in isolation.  You decide to flip the switch and flip it.  But if you are doing 
delegated credentials, deploying a new version depends on having a fallback in 
place for that version, or getting the vendor of delegated credentials to start 
supplying new credentials.  And that assumes that all the necessary stores are 
keyed correctly (though this highlights the case where that might not happen), 
and the code has been written.  It's not that it's impossible, but more that it 
complicates what was previously uncomplicated.

As you say, the decision to use a delegated credential is fairly simple.
