Also, an observation: This seems to interact in somewhat annoying way
with stateless HRR.

Basically, CH reconstruction no longer works properly, so one needs to
have a  freezeable PRF hash (and most implementations of hashes can not
be frozen).

And server not supporting PSK does not help here.


(BTW: Simlar thing comes up if you try to freeze an established TLS
session: Currently you need to freeze a hash due to post-handshake
authentication, even if you don't support it. Nothing else in TLS
1.2 or 1.3 needs hash freezing for established session).
