My point was/is that reliance on DNSSec means that there is an
INDEPENDENT authentication hierarchy.

Taking a look at the entire 'system' that DANE is part of, the
authentication is NOT only between peers.

Use DANE without DNSSec, and calling it opportunistic probably makes
sense.  Using it with DNSSec and it doesn't.
