Hi Rich,

You've argued before that "if we got rid of the SNI encryption :) the
number of changes being considered is pretty small in both number and
scope." [1].

I don't think that's true.  For example, the EKR draft introduces
"semi-static" public keys used for 0-RTT as well as handshake
encryption.  Removing handshake encryption alone wouldn't eliminate
this mechanism.
