DANE and MTA-STS provide an evolutionary and backwards compatible path for the 
transition to fully encrypted and authenticated email flows for those that 
care, but cannot force anyone to care and deploy them. What we are discussing 
is whether we could collectively exert gentle pressure (i.e. encrypt your email 
by this date or you won't be allowed to communicate any more) so that even 
those that don't care start to care.
