(It is far from perfect though, for example, quad9's DNS servers you reach via 9.9.9.9 might have a different feature set whenever you reach them. Try "dig @9.9.9.9 +nsid heise.de" a bunch of times. It will sometimes advertise an EDNS dgram size of 512 and sometimes of 1232. Which is quite some discrepancy in configuration. — And sometimes it returns NSID, and sometimes it doesn't, but I am fine to ignore that.)
