Except, most of us access the internet with an OS. If OSs prefered encrypted DNS queries then it gives us a heap more privacy.
No, the OS has nothing to do with it. DNS is handled by a DNS client, which is run as a service. To use a particular feature you simply have to connect to a server that supports it.
