The issue is that connection establishment will be expensive, which is
something separate from getting a bunch of queries. As others have pointed
out, this cost will be amortized to almost nothing most of the time. After
an outage, this connection establishment cost will have to be dealt with in
parallel.

I don't have an opinion on whether this should be implementation guidance,
or even in the spec.
