Why is this scary? We have ample evidence that it's possible to run high
availability services using TLS at much larger scale than pretty much any
authoritative server.  I realize that this is outside of the experience of
some [0] DNS operators, but it's not like the knowledge isn't out there.

[0] Though not all. Cloudflare, for instance, runs an authoritative service.
