It seems to me true, from experience and from anecdote, that DNS out

with the protocol and a lot to do with decisions that implementers
and operators made, either on purpose or by accident.

Indeed, in one of his messages, Keith Moore listed many "problems with
DNS" that were completely different in their origin. Almsot none were
protocol-related, most were operational but some were not even linked
to DNS operations, they were layer 8 and 9 issues (such as the
registrar transfer problem in ICANNland) and completely offtopic for
the IETF.
