I only have one question for you then---IF I allowed TLS to be
optional, how would a client know to use TLS, Wireguard or say, Tor?
Note that HTTP has this issue (HTTP 1.1? 1.2? Soon 1.3 which does noteven use TCP?) It is "solved" by some mixture of signaling in the DNS<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-svcb-https/>,redirection when possible (Alt-Svc:) and intelligent guessing, probingand memorization by the client.
