There are also very common cases of using multiple CDNs or server farms
with different capabilities but with the same host name, or of switching a
live site between platforms. As others have mentioned, the behaviors need
to be well defined and result in extra rtt rather than hard failure to
allow 0rtt to be safely deployable.

You can't stream extensions, which unfortunately is required given how
most software interacts with their TLS stack.

Let's be clear, the actual risk we're talking about is pretty-much
confined to screw-ups.  The deployment screwup where you left one
server speaking TLS 1.2 somewhere before turning 0-RTT on; and TLS
MitM, which calling a screw-up might be too positive a statement.

Of course, David is right that screw-ups like this are too common for
us to do nothing about them.
