But, it is stupid to forbid "https://example.com"; and force
using "https://www.example.com";, which means, in a long run,
a domain will support a lot of application protocols.

This is why the URI would be:

_http._tcp.example.com.     IN URI 1 1
"https://www.example.com/"; _http._tcp.www.example.com. IN URI
1 1 "https://www.example.com/";

Especially because there are a good number of very sound
reasons, especially when one looks a very large domains with
many hosts and their own deep hierarchy and at assorted IDN
label cases, why one would not want example.com to be a synonym
for www.example.com.  In other worse, it is not as obviously
"stupid" as Masataka's comment suggests.
