Another way of stating the preference ordering:

If DNS privacy is a goal, systems and applications SHOULD use DNS over
TLS to encrypt traffic to their local resolver if possible (unless the
system and application distrusts the local resolver infrastructure).
Failing that, they MAY next use a DNS over TLS connection to a remote,
potentially public, DNS resolver.  Failing that, they MAY send DNS
traffic over an HTTPS connection.

This preserves privacy as desired while still optimizing local caching,
round trip speeds, and falling back to the must tunneling only as
needed.

What no one has convinced me of (personally) is why applications should
default to a single resolver over HTTPS at all times, regardless of
where I am on the planet.
