Right. But all DNS in the past (and most in the present) is small, stateless UDP

large UDP packets, fragments, and more TCP.
That's a big change for something we depending so much on today.
Perhaps this future DNS should have a new name and use a different well
known port to avoid confusion. I suggest calling it "LDAP" and using
ports 389/636.
Add "discourages protocol bloat" to the list of well known benefits of
anycast DNS.
