This would also assume all the users would know how to configure this specific endpoint, or that IT staff do this for all the users. Today there isn't a good story around automating this process in heterogeneous shops. (windows, mac, linux, misc api tools)
If a browser has a default option to use CloudFlare, Google, Amazon or Microsoft, then the user will click the button to "secure their DNS" and suddenly their internal applications may break or do odd things and companies start leaking even more internal records.
Some IT departments may try to fix this by deploying configurations for 80% of the use cases and some may just block the public DoH servers.
I can think of many ways this could be solved. The point I was trying to convey is that people have not thought this through and implemented this in browsers before corporate infrastructure was ready to accommodate the need. This creates contention and friction that could have been avoided, in my opinion. Adoption is likely to be embraced more widely if more use cases are accommodated.
