DNSSEC doesn't really work client-side IRL. The DNS servers typical clients talk to generally do not implement what you need, and if they do not correctly. This means if you have a great network admin who set everything up right it might work, but DNSSEC on a laptop that moves around and connects to a WLAN here, and another WLAN there and a third WLAN over there is just a nightmare. If the other big OSes would enable DNSSEC client-side by default things might change, but neither Windows nor MacOS or Android do.
