My view is that recommending closing open recursors is a way of recommending closing one possible DoS path. It does not close all of them, and it may not even close the path that is mostly used. It does close a path that has been observed in use. I am sceptical of the claim that those observations are either fabricated or somehow fraudulently generated. I therefore do not think the alternative mitigation is adequate reason not to go forward with the draft in question.
