I think the caching and DoT stuff that resolved provides is useful on

minimize the difference in the APIs (and that includes D-Bus APIs)

You have a good point about caching. And I like the emphasis on usability (in an earlier
post. That may be one reason for the wide acceptance of systemd, despite all the
criticism).
But for Fedora Server, I definitely want an unmissable indication of a configuration error
(and log entries are too easy to miss, especially when I don't see a problem). So
instead of (more or less silent) fallback, a fail.
For Fedora Workstation, I see resolved as a real step forward.
But for Fedora Server it would need a tighter integration of / cooperation with libvirt
virtualisation and also NetworkManager in the medium term.
