Typical case:

- Clients connected to a proxy using TLS (to secure communication in
private networks and untrusted Internet access as most ADSL's).
- The provider proxy uses UDP to contact the PSTN gateways of the
provider (which don't support TLS), or other SIP carriers in the
world.

This is the most common SIP scenario AFAIK, and here using SIP over
TLS between clients and their proxy is a good choice.
