If your centralized DNS server receives a blocking order, what are you doing to do? You’ll have to do something. Give me another alternative then. In the current geopolitical environment, this is not idle speculation, it’s a real threat.
Latency is a tradeoff, I mentioned there are tradeoffs. For an individual or home network, the latency should not be a problem especially with caching.
As for TCP/UDP, current RFCs say that DNS servers must accept TCP, but not all may follow the standard and some misconfigured firewalls may block it. But it doesn’t seem to be an issue when tunneling all traffic over Tor using something like Tails. So I don’t think this is really a problem.
