It will depend on deployment context whether they can be used.  You have to have an IP address that meets the conditions set out in draft-ietf-acme-ip, which means minimally no RFC 1918 or LLA/ULA.

I don't think that I'm comfortable recommending a design that doesn't allow for names, unless we can get pretty wide agreement from networks saying that this is feasible in their deployment, even if (and perhaps especially if) they are not currently consdering DoH deployment.  Even if we had names, it's not clear that getting certificates for those names is easy.

BTW, neither IP address certificates nor names work for the device that ostensibly offers DNS resolution on the network I am in right now.  That means that the third-party service is the only option that is likely to work in most private premises and small offices.  That might reduce the pressure on this mechanism.
