Let's make sure everyone is in synch about what is being proposed:
The suggestion is to drop a tag from the *DNS record*, /not/

What is the benefit of having the DNS record list possible algorithms?
It's not a matter of possible algorithms, but which algorithm is to be
used to interpret p=. This having been said, I think your major point
is that you do not see a benefit in stating the algorithm in the key
record when it has already been stated in the header, that perhaps there
is some nebulous potential downgrade attack. Is that right?
