There’s a much easier and far quicker solution for that problem. Clients who have those concerns can (and should be able to) point their queries elsewhere.

How about an RFC that says “don't use Quad-X if you’re concerned about revealing your IP address or identity to those services”?

I’m sceptical about Oblivious DNS because the use case and problem statement isn’t compelling enough, at least to me.
