I'm with Joe, "because it still works OK." We all know how long the tail is so it's going to be a very long time before anyone can turn off UDP.

I'd think that it'd be more effective to make authoritative DoT work since that's always TCP.

Perhaps we could also encourage caches to remember when queries to a server frequently fall back to TCP, so it can skip UDP queries to that server in the future. That makes the UDP queries go away where it makes sense without the end clients having to do anything.
