I think you are missing the whole point of what is being suggested. There is no DNSSEC if clients are talking directly with authoritative services using DNS over TLS. No signatures, no sovereign countries who controls keys, not anything whi

DNSSEC does actually have protection against bgp hijacking. The dnssec root key are (generally?) hardcoded into the resolvers, so even if someone would do a bgp hijacking of the root servers they would still not resolve.

If the issue is the lack of certificate transparency, then add that as a new standard to dnssec. Certificate Transparency came into the picture around 2013, by which time https was fairly old. Public resolvers like google, quad 9, and cloud
