Assuming you're actually serious, why?

I'm a privacy zealot and many people have trouble getting PGP or S/MIME
to work. I've met Ph.Ds who couldn't figure it out.
Requiring TLS not only gives passive protection, but it also means we
would have the assumption of privacy when communicating with e-mail
which at least in the United States has legal ramifications for law
enforcement snooping on e-mail w/o a warrant.
